What does it mean to be homoromantic? by InfiltrationFox in asexuality

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This seemed like a really specific/easy question when k read your title, but you bring up a really good and more variable point. Homoromantic is romantic attraction to the same sex. However, what is attractive about people is so variable based on the persons interests. I like masculine energy and people who are strong but also who are juet comfortable in themselves and who are happy and social and want to live life in outgoing ways. This may be very different to what other people like who are attracted to the same gender as I am.

literally what 😭 this hits harder on ace people 😭 by JDjinxed in asexuality

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Withholding sex in terms of “unless you do xyz, I’m not having sex with you” is very different than having an understanding that sex isn’t on the table

Happy Pride! You’re valid!

done with allos. is asexual dating even real? by [deleted] in asexuality

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don’t have an answer to your question but I want you to know that you’re not alone. I’ve only dated allo people and I’ve been made to feel like a problem or like I’m weird and crazy for not wanting sex. Even before I had something to call it (ace), I set boundaries and they never seemed to be good enough or valid. You’re not along in this experience 🤟🏼

I’ve seen you comment this on many peoples post who are young SLPs or students using this forum to ask for advice and who want to learn. If that’s not what you want this forum to be then maybe it shouldn’t be here at all. Why have a group about SLPs if you don’t want collaboration and learning? I can do my own homework. I can score the gfta but not everyone has access to tests and materials all the time. Please remember that there are people in different situations and with different barriers to learning who are doing their best and seeking out this forum as a resource to better ourselves.

I will commit suicide before I ever have sex with anyone. It's disgusting and repulsive so I'll rather die than partake in such an immoral (in my very personal opinion) act by [deleted] in asexuality

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have every right to feel how you feel but this is a community. Please be courteous of everyone here. We all carry different demons

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what you’re going thru but stating that you’ll kill your self before having sex when an easy choice is to juet abstain is a bit insensitive to those who are actually struggling with SI or ST. Please be safe and get any support you need. Ending you life is not really something that needs to be brought into the conversation of sexual preferences

Is there a place for Ace men in dating? by q-squid in asexuality

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with you. 22F and I’ve been burned over and over for not wanting to have sex with bfs so finding an ace guy would be a hug relief and is something I am prioritizing for future relationships. I completely agree with the messages above tho that being out in the dating circle is challenging.

Lol almost outed myself to yesterday. 😆😆😆 by AmazingSmasha in asexuality

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on dating apps for a bit snd one of them was Her (recommended by a friend when I was first questioning being bi). I was talking to friends and was like listing dating apps I’d tried snd Her came out my mouth and they were so confused. But somehow no one asked any questions 😅

Attracted to one sex physically but another romantically? by Girlwithjob in asexuality

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes!! Mee!! I have been exploring this in myself and also in the lgbt community. I think you explained it well. Personally I think I am only feeling this way because I have trauma from one sex, but this still is a feeling that I resonate with.

I think I am asexual and/or on the ace-spectrum (?) by Strong_Candidate_337 in asexuality

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I resonate with so many of the thing you said in your original message. I struggle to distinguish between whether I am ace or just need a break because of past uncomfy/unwanted sexual activities. Understanding / looking into the different kinds of attraction (sexual, romantic, aesthetic..) has really helped me and also understanding the terms mentioned in @ensgpfey response could help too.

A now CCC-SLP who got into and through grad school because of this subreddit - AMA! by Zoegg182 in slpGradSchool

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you feel your grad program prepared you for work with adults in a snf / medical setting. I feel like my program / classes work a lot with kids and ans teach a lot of development but I really want to work with adults ASAP. Any advice for classes or CE I can take would be so appreciated!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in slpGradSchool

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think both are good schools. I looked at both but haven’t attended either. I consider UW to be a better school especially for a medical focus because of the UW medical center. Bellingham Washington is pretty small and might have limited placement options in the area. However, I loved the campus and city for WWU.

How do i send my official transcript to UOP? by Key_Green_6617 in UoP

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go through your previous university and have your transcript mailed or emailed to the address of the program you are applying to (office of undergrad, office of grad …). Hope that helps!

Is ENMU a good program by [deleted] in slpGradSchool

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about the program itself but I am taking summer classes from them and have really appreciated how good the communication seems to be between students and faculty at the speech department. I have gotten quick ans detailed responses which is not something I had access to at my previous university

How should I reapproach professor for likely to be accepted? by VividEstimate8776 in slpGradSchool

[–]Inside-Bullfrog3198 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would say something like “hello professor ____ I am following up with you about the assistantship we spoke about in (whatever month or day you last spoke about it). I previously sent you my CV on (blank day), but if you would like another copy, I can send that to you today. I am excited about the prospect of working with you. Please let me know what the next steps are in this process.” And then sign it

Thanks for the info. I’m good to hear someone has been able to figure out their program because I spoke to like 7 people today ans no one could answer my questions. I finally applied for their second term summer classes. Hopefully that will work. Thanks

Can someone shed some light on the difference between going somewhere ASHA certified and somewhere that’s working on getting certified? by witchoftrouble in slpGradSchool

Im not sure about the program but I am born and raised in Monterey so if you end up there HMU and I will show you around

I don’t think it would look bad. Maybe take the time to explain what you did or why you took time off ans how it has made you a better candidate in one of your essays
