Coming out, How do I tell my Friends and Family HELP?

[Jimmy J]

Well I am 19 in college and I think my friends and maybe my family are beginning to think I am gay. Well my friends even my best friend dont really want to hang out with me much lately. I think they think that I am gay. Because I never hang out with girls, cuz really nothing in common with them, so just hang out with my guy friends. Everyone is becoming so distant and this is really the only thing I can think of why. So should I tell them I am Asexual or just say Im not gay????
One of my friends asked what I would do if I was with a naked girl. I wanted to say I am not interested in woman, I am Asexual. But I said haha what do you think like it was obvious.

Please no smart ace answers, I know Asexual also means a one celled organism that reproduces by itself. Its just childish to be a smart ace about it, cuz the way I am using it means a person who is not attracted to either gender. So no smart ace asnwers

We are what we make ourselves. If you are happy with your situation then so be it. However if you want to maintain your friendships you may have to adjust a little to their way of thinking.

You are who you are so it shouldn't really matter if you are interested in guys or girls. Maybe they are pulling away because you are giving them some type of sign that you want to be alone away from them. Maybe your withdrawing yourself and not realizing it yourself. Step back and look at the entire picture.
We all get caught up thinking the worse. If you can just come out and ask why they don't seem to want to hang out anymore.
Like I said maybe you are just confusing the issue.
Would it really matter if you are gay? "Happy "either way you are who you are true? So be honest with yourself first then go from there.

Therapy might help you resolve your issue with your gender preferences. Living an asexual life may prove to be very loney.

Do you have any homosexual thoughts or desires? Are you saying that you aren't, and people think you are? Or that you are but you don't want people to know?

It is possible to not be attracted to either gender, and you would in fact be asexual if this were the case. If this is how you feel, just do your best to convey this to friends and family.

Overall though, they aren't real friends if they don't accept you for who you are.

Tell them you are not gay, just to get them off your back. Just say you're not in the mood for dating at the moment- maybe you want to concentrate on studying? You will tell them when the time is right- if they are truly your friends they will understand.

Honestly Sweetie, If they really care the should get the fact that you are Asexual. If they don't get that, Then Screw them. Its not something you should have to prove to people. You Know what you are and Who you are. And you should never have to prove that.

True friends don't care who you do, or in your case, don't have sex with.
