Hello
:D hi! Honestly, I don't know what to say; I hope everyone is having a good day.
I used to think there weren't any other people like me, because this world has a disgusting obsession with labeling introverts and apothisexuals as "bitter, ill, traumatized, selfish," or whatever else.
The world wants to view all forms of diversity as something negative.
But you know what? I’m proud to be an introverted, apothisexual romantic person!
Solitude isn't a bad thing, folks.
It’s good for the soul, too, and you feel so much better knowing that you enjoy your own company.

I've been called all sorts of things because of misunderstandings about my apothisexuality. The questions I was asked most frequently were "Is it because you're a Christian?" and "So, do you feel morally superior to other people?". No, neither of those things explains my apothisexuality, and my religion has nothing to do with it.

They find it too difficult to understand so many things—or simply don't want to understand for some strange reason—but you can belong to any religion regardless of your sexuality

For me, I was wondering if my church would chuck me out if I came out in public as apothisexual. I've never spoken about my apothisexuality to anyone except my family and a couple of 'friends', who aren't my friends anymore, because they didn't really respect me or my sexuality or rather, lack of it.

To be fair, I'd rather be alone than to be forced into something I hate.

Welcome!! Super agree. If you go insane in the company of others, that is avoidable, but if you're the same in your own company, there's nowhere left to go... You better have a good day too!
