I have gone from younggrandma to just yg. Now,
I am using my real name.
I don't think anyone who knows me will have trouble figuring out who that is!


I have been gone a while dealing with things in my own life. I am back now to help once again. Do not expect answers from me that just tell you what you want to hear. Life is to short for nonsense. :)

So, I'm asexual but my boyfriend is not. I've already told him about it, and we're both fine with it, but we haven't actually talked about the sex part of our relationship yet. I'm not interested in having sex at all, but I'm wondering what I can do instead in case if he still needs SOMETHING?

And also, how should I bring it up to him to talk about?

If you are really not interested at all then you do need to discuss it. If he still needs something, and most will, then you'll probably have to understand that he will not be around forever. You can be besties, but if he wants more, he will find someone who feels the same. He may currently believe he can change your mind. Good friends are hard to find though so hope you remain friends.

Thank you! That really helped a lot and things are better for me now.
