Me: Stop looking for guys for me because I am gay!
Friend: Really? Why didn’t you tell me before? We could’ve taken a house and stayed together and then I wouldn’t have had to get married.
*Jaw hits the floor; and wishes fervently for magic to make words remain unspoken.*
Friend: You know, as friends. I wouldn’t have got married, if I knew I didn’t need to be alone…
Oh! Thank God!
I now know how Gretchen
Thomas felt when Liz Lemon proposed they move in together after 25 years if
both of them are single at the time… Except that I don’t have a thing for my
friend, of course. (Also, in case you were wondering, I would have totally made
a life altering change and gone for the brilliant plastics engineer slash
lesbian…)
Disclaimer: I am not entirely convinced that I am a lesbian. I may be an asexual or an asexual lesbian; while I have had crushes on XX people (and to a very very lesser extent on those with a Y chromosome), I have rarely had a single sexual feeling towards anyone. All of my crushes were emotional ones. Still, reading the news about the Supreme Court verdict on homosexuality made me realise that I identify with lesbians. I take offense at the suggestion that the law has any business deciding what consensual adults do with each other; and I will always side with those who fight against this discrimination.

asexual? asexual lesbian? Seriously!? No such thing exists! You need to find the love of your life...and lesbian or no, it cant be asexual!
You have to meet the right one! Here's to you to be willing to let the right one find you! (Knowing you, you'll argue this out!)
Yup.. I'm with Veena on this one.. I believe the soul is asexual but we are down here in a body with all kinda preferences for a reason..Might as well embrace it!
