I’ve to be honest haven’t heard about demisexuality before, I had a friend who was demisexual and I talked to him about the way I felt and my experiences, he pointed me into this direction and I did further research on this topic and that’s ultimately how I got here ^^ What about you?
Well, I was having some issues related to my ADHD while also dealingwith some personal issues. Bunch of informative graphics kept bringing up asexuality. No idea what it was referencing so I searched the term and when I got to the demisexual description kind of had a switch go in the head and over a few months of soul searching; came to the realization that I was demi-grey. It wasn’t easy as I had to unlearn some assumptions about how the world worked.
I’m sorry for you that you had to deal with those difficulties :<
I’m glad that you came to this point! It also took me a while from thinking “I’m awkward, I’m not normal” to “wait, I’m not awkward, I’m just demisexual, this actually makes sense and is normal”. Mostly since I haven’t researched it since I didn’t really think about that I might not be the only feeling the way I do.
I think many of us had to do this at some point, I’m glad you achieved it!
