@MarrieIzzy I’ve gotten way better w/ handling this over time fortunately. Even hearing random strangers talking about sex made me uncomfortable. I’m sorry you have to deal with ppl not respecting your boundaries and fetishizing you. It must be exhausting, I hope things get better.

I don’t know how to handle situations where people are interested in me or try to ask me intimate questions.
Luckily, this rarely happens but still. I know this isn’t a perfect world where everyone is understanding and knows everyone’s sexuality without asking—-
I know when people are being innocent and I know when people are harassing me. It’s not the same but I do still feel at least some level uncomfortableness depending on the situation. I know I can’t control how people may feel about me but I certainly can control how I respond.
anyone’s fault for not knowing I’m Aroace (I don’t plan on telling bc reasons) but again, the whole purpose of why I’m venting is because I wish I knew how to handle these situations better. I can’t let these things bother me even if they’re kinda innocent, yknow?
