so idk if i've mentioned it,,, (i probably havent tbh), but i was planning on getting a lil black ring for ace (asexual) pride. i told my mom i wanted it, but i didnt say why. (i didnt want to risk her telling me i couldnt get it). she baught it for me, but i had to earn it. for months, we couldnt settle on how i could get it. then my birthday came up, so i was trying to just get it for my birthday.
she kept brushing me off.
little did i know why.
i asked and asked and asked, and finally i guess i asked when my siblings were around.
she'd read my texts (again).
she saw why i wanted the ring, and thats why she wouldn't let me have it.
she gave me the "its just a phase" talk. "you'll understand when you're older."
im old enough to date, doesn't she understand I'm old enough to decide this?
"you don't have to label yourself because other people label you"
i like the label that I gave myself. no one else made me use a label. labels help me be sure of myself, that other people feel the way i do, I'm not alone.
mom hates labels.
"just be you"
this is me.
"i don't want you advertising that you don't like either gender"
but it's true. sorry im an embarrassment, but i can't choose who i am and i don't see why i need to hide it. i won't shout it out, but i like how subtle the ring is. it's a nod to who i am. sorry im not allowed to be myself.
