Sorry about the typos, poor spelling, ackward wording and grammatical errors is previous post, didn't have time to edit and I was thinking faster than I could type. Sentiment remains intact.

I don't consider myself asexual at all, I just don't know how to express my feelings to someone of the opposite sex. I've sort of tried but I don't think they got it. I still feel like a child when I have a crush. Not easy to explain to someone who's way out there.

Not everybody is interested in sex or romantic relationships and that's just fine. In the west, we live in a hyper-sexualized society and if you don't go along with that the mainstream (including gay culture) is unfortunately going to treat you differently. I know it can be frustrating, but if I were you I wouldn't worry about it.

Hey Aardvark,

Sounds like you need a complete turnover in friends!

I like this person but he's put off by me having a disability. He told me there's a law stopping him from having a relationship with me even though it's not sexual. He told me he might not be able to see me because he says he can get in trouble with the law for being with me because of my disability. I like hanging out and smuggling he's like my big brother and takes me places. He's got an adult relationship so I'm not worried about sex or him wanting that but I don't want my friend getting in trouble for the appearence of a relationship that doesn't exist. Now for the question.

What does the laws say about autism and sexual relationships?
What can the law do if someone reports him and says stuff is happening?
Will my vioce even be hard if t goes to court and if I say nothing happened would they even listen?

Hey sorry I've been so tardy in following up to my own thread-- just wanted to say it's been such a big help and relief to read every single post, thoughts about the nature of sexuality and its huge differences among us and experiences and be assured that it's okay.

different strokes for different strokes. If you're non-sexual, that's probably a good thing.

You can have a lot more time and energy to spend on other things, and not be disappointed when do don't get teh secks.

There are many-a-day when I wish I were non sexual.
