Long time dream to learn American Sign Language finally underway.
You are correct. Aromantism is a orientation based on an individual's experience or non-experience of romantic attraction and is not based in sexual attraction.
Asexuality is a valid sexuality. Aromantism is a valid orientation.
Casual reminder that “aromantic” is not a valid sexuality.

A guy at my work wears a black ring on his middle finger. I tried to ask but I failed. But to be fair he hasn’t asked about mine either. Also work is not a great place to discuss sexuality.
Finally got myself an Ace ring… The good thing about Ace rings is that as long as their black or a mix of black and purple your good. They can be black roses, spiraled, plain, jeweled…
Now the problem is… The uncertainty…
Is that person asexual? Or is that ring a fashion statement?

After some weeks of being uncomfortable I finally bit the bullet and had a coworker verbally warned about his sexual misconduct towards me. Standing very close just behind my shoulder, saying I'm beautiful, staring. I've asked him to stop but he and a few others thought I was joking; his comments towards me aren't bad they make me highly uncomfortable. I hate the idea that I should be flattered. Fuck that. I don't like that, I don't want that. I don't care if you don't mean it that you're just joking. It adds stress to an already stressful job. I told you to stop, end of story.

My being asexual doesn't cause me distress nor does it negatively affect my daily life. It is other people that cause me distress. I don't notice what I don't have. It's constantly having people point out that they think something is wrong with me.

I'm 27 and finally found out I'm different...not broken, go figure
