I get a lot of questions like, "Well, do you love anything at all?" And it's like

"Yes, it's just it it doesn't involve people in a sexual or romantic way."

My name is Arianna and I identify as asexual.

I am Emmanuel and I identify as biromantic asexual.

My name is Katherine and I identify as asexual.

My name is Mark and I identify as an asexual man.

My my name is Zoe and I identify as asexual and aromantic.

Asexuality is the lack of attraction when it comes to

I don't ever have any desire to participate in any sexual activity.

A biromantic is an attraction to both genders, but not sexually.

Being really free to explore romanticism.

I can have romantic attraction for people,

I guess all my life I just kind of felt out of place and I didn't understand why.

I just never really felt a connection with someone before

on a romantic or sexual level like my friends.

I started recognizing in high school how all my

female friends had sexual feelings toward guys and I just couldn't relate to them.

I would, you know, do the normal thing, go out and date.

And I realized, like, physically, I was attracted to people.

physical attraction and sexual attraction, that just wasn't there.

I thought I was weird at first, until I got into high school and I did my research.

My parents don't really take it seriously.

They're those kind of people that are like

"Oh you just haven't found the right person" or "maybe you're not into guys"

"Maybe you're a lesbian." Anything other than asexuality.

It took me a while to come to terms with it.

But when I realized it, I started telling my closest friends and my parents.

Some of them were skeptical about it because they care about me and

It's definitely gonna be hard for them to come to terms with,

It's hard for me to find that balance in somebody who's interested in the companionship,

One day I will find somebody who's willing to deal with that.

I'd like to have somebody to share my life with.

Hopefully down the line I'll be able to find

somebody that, whether they're asexual or heterosexual, will accept me for who I am.

Whenever I find a guy that I like, the question of "do I have to tell them right now?"

"Would they care if I was asexual?" That always comes to mind.

I've told the guy that I liked that I was asexual, and he was understanding.

A lot of guys are like, "Oh you don't have sexual attraction?"

People just always feel uncomfortable that they really like me

and I just don't want to have sex with them.

We could just have an adventure, have a good time, and for me, it's the same feeling of sex.

I don't plan on dating or pursuing anybody on any level other than platonic.

My close friends definitely still accept me, but I just feel like I have to try to fit in with them.

So I sometimes kind of lie and say,  "Oh I did hook up with this person."

When people say, "Oh, I went out, and I had sex with this person last night."

There's no connection there, because for everyone else it may be a universal experience,

When a friend, just tells me maybe about their sex life

I still feel like it's something that they're talking about that I don't necessarily know 100%,

Believe in yourself and believe in what you feel.

Don't stress yourself about giving yourself a label

if you are still not sure about whether you're asexual or not.

Accept yourself. Because you're born this way.

Stay positive. There'll be a lot of people that'll make you feel like you're the weird one.

Don't pay attention and keep it out of your mind.

And we... we'll definitely welcome you with open arms.
