I’m Asexual Please Understand This Isn’t A Statement

My name is Daniel Perry and I live in Chester, I am 35 years old, single, never married, very few relationships in my entire lifetime-and to be honest, only had intimate relations once and was underwhelmed by it.

For a long time I actually tortured myself over my lack of a relationships and all that goes with it in my life, I began self harming and isolated myself from people.

But in the last couple years I’ve read up on asexuality and have started making peace with myself I am a person who has no sexual feelings or desires.

It tormented me because I felt like a freak, like there was something wrong with me. But I’m coming to accept there is nothing wrong-this is just how I am.

There are still some issues, I do feel as if I’ve let my family down by not being able to continue the bloodline and not give them the pleasure of seeing me married.

But I can’t change this anymore than anyone else can. So I am hoping to find help and support to move on with my life in the new reality I have woken up to.

Asexual is not weird or strange I am forever seeing people make snide comments or mocking those in the asexual world.

I cannot change the way I am just as much as you cannot change who you are, please be kind to others who have no choice to how they are.

I’m Asexual Please Understand This Isn’t A Statement it isn’t a fashion trend because you can’t get a partner etc, it’s a way of life something that means I have no sexual desires at all I can’t force myself to find people attractive or to get sexual desires, I see myself just as a person I can’t say I’m straight or gay or anything I am Asexual and that is okay.
