Hey there! I am also on the aroace spectrum and I want to say that I am glad you found the courage to be yourself, regardless of what other people think. I am agender and as a trans person too, I lost many so called friends and family. Now I am rebuilding my own circle and that's literally the best thing that ever happened to me. I know how lonely the journey is and I am sending you all the support I can. You are a very strong person I am sure! (Sorry if my comment came out of nowhere, I just wanted to express that you are not alone. Feel free to tell me to delete it if you find it uncomfortable)
