this reminds me of a friend with the same situation. one time we were in highschool, talking about sexuality and he said he was asexual, but wasn’t born that way and some random girl just came out of nowhere saying that he was wrong and that people are born asexual. it was weird
Sexuality is a fluid and ever changing thing in life.
Some people find their groove later in life, some find it early, some people it changes with time, some it’s a constant.
And the same applies to romantic attraction as well. Edit: Hell it even applies to gender!
Everyone is different, we’ve just got rough definitions for categories of people. Sometimes those definitions fit like a glove, sometimes they fit like a tarp, and sometimes they’re too restrictive to be useful.
All we can do is try to accept one another for who we are and as long as we can all agree to do that we’ll get along just fine. Some people really don’t realize this or even make an attempt to and it’s depressing as hell.
