It all started as a little child. I never wanted to date and “felt a crush” at age 6. I did that to fit in.
I throughout the years I waited for some type of feeling there was. I dated people but hated it it and only did it because I felt bad. I felt broken and why I felt this way. I tried everything to feel that way. I up to a 5 months ago I found the term aroace. I felt it clicked and thought it all made sense. I plan on coming out in the near future as something that is my true self.
From what I found out is that I get so much hate from the community. Reason being is that I am not “queer enough” because we aren’t trans or same gender attraction.

I feel you :pensive: and I feel like it's impossible to come out to people, because no believes it. "You'll find the right person eventually" :sleeping: :sleeping: :sleeping: heard it before... But no. It's truly an unrepresented minority. There's no hostility... Just ignorance
"Not being queer enough" honestly makes no sense, I'm sorry you've dealt with that. New day kids have turned the LGBTQ+ community into a trend, and it's sickening.
Now it's all about "fitting in" to their standards, and or "doing it right". It's just stupid, and so are they.
My best advice, take what everyone says with a grain of salt, even "nice" people. Because in the end, you're the only person/thing that's best for you.
