My family would typically expect me to be into women. Some people, maybe men. But I really feel nothing for any gender at all. I like the idea of being in love and having a love interest, but the closest I could feel is what I thought was “love” due to feeling pressure around me. Or maybe to concepts or non-gendered people/entities, I don’t know how to describe it.

    Have you heard of asexuality? Not the scientific concept, but the sexual orientation.

      Yep, it’s the flag on my profile picture! Demiboy and asexual.

          Aww, I’m sorry. It’s half demiboy on the left and half asexual on the right

            I’m glad you’ve found the words to describe how you feel.

            What does it mean to be demiboy? That’s a new term for me.

              It’s like when you feel partially like a boy, but not quite. For me, I feel partially like I know I’m a guy, but a part of me feels like it has no gender at all.

    Cupioromantic is what you’re describing. It’s under the aromantic umbrella, as a separate label from asexual. (that’s essentially how I identify lol)
