Ace Of Hearts by Nimure

Ace Of Hearts

So this is in relation to my last art post. IRL there were a couple of weeks between each piece, so I've had some time to process my feelings.

So a couple months back, I started to acknowledge that I personally didn't feel the same way that "everyone else" did. I took some time to actually look into things, and realized that I'm asexual.

All that basically means is that I don't experience sexual attraction towards anyone of any gender.

This has been a bit of a rough transition at times. It's hard not to feel broken (hence my last piece). It's hard not to feel like I'm missing out on a significant part of the human experience. However, I'm coming to terms with it, and learning to accept myself, hence this artwork here. My husband has thankfully been extremely understanding and supportive. We are talking more and that's a definitely plus for any marriage.

Ironically I had tried to come out in HS as being ace, only I had no term back then. A family member of mine took great offense to that, and I was subjected to a significant amount of emotional abuse until I learned how to pretend to be normal. I think that is why it took so long for me to look into things. These are not details I want to get into, as I'd rather leave the past in the past, but I'm glad to be free and able to accept myself for who I am. TLDR; I'm ace. Here's some ace pride artwork, where I designed a card for myself. 'Ace of Hearts' because I'm a romantic ace.

I don't think I need this here because you guys are great, but it's my global reminder: Please feel free to ask questions/show support. Please no negativity! If you don't agree, that's fine, I don't need to hear it though. :)
