Pretty much title of the post. As nice as memes have been, I'm hoping to make the community more than that, and decided to start off with a simple question relating to asexuality.

For me, I never realized it until after high school when I realized it wasn't really something that mattered to me much, and it really should have been obvious to me ages back when I only found people to be cute or pretty rather than "hot" like my classmates did in school.

I noticed that I didn't have any interest in sex when I was in middle school but I assumed I was a weird straight person. I knew asexual was a thing but once my mom found out I identified as it and told me I wasn't and that turned me off from exploring the possibility of being queer for years.

I was almost 15 when I finally started coming around to the idea that I was asexual. Oddly enough after I identified as ace again I became more open to the idea of having sex. Maybe I'm demi or just a sex favorable ace?
