I am also an Ace. I wasn't when I was younger, but somehow things changed. It was very confusing for me, yet I try to handle it somehow. Always by myself, always alone, I am already so tired of being alone, but yet kinda beginning to get used to be by myself. Just being alone, because everyone I've met want sex. Something I can't give at this point of my life. I am very lonesome. I don't have any friends, but my heart craves for Her so much, it aches so much. I don't have the self-esteem and the confidence to go out, to flirt, I just stay at home almost all the time, except when I really necessarily have to go outside. Just, if I had a gf, I am alone for so long, I feel.. Just sad;miserable. Alone. 🕸️

as an ace lesbian this is such an amazing film to see. I've don't often relate to relationships I've seen on tv but when they were fighting and Phoebe said "would have known to what? not date me?" that is something I've felt and feared a lot. Should I tell girls I date I'm ace at first, or wait? I'm scared they wont want to give me a chance if they know I'm ace. Something I still struggle with. It was cool to see how I feel reflected in this! Great job!

This really hits home. I recently got into my first relationship and after about two months, I finally realized that I am asexual. It really makes sense why I just kind of had this off feeling about sex and even though I had it, I just never wanted it or hoped for it and honestly preferred just spending time with her instead.

Thank you so much, Miriam! Miss you lots and hope you’re doing well!

Thank you! It has made me cry, laugh and feel so many emotions... So many years of feeling like I was spoiled, feeling displaced and not understanding anything. Thanks to the experiences of others and the visibility that is taking place in the network, I finally understood what I am. My partner is an incredible person. As in your story, she has also decided to be with me, to love me as I am. And it has been the greatest gift that life has given me. There are still a lot of wounds, a lot of self-inflicted damage, but for the first time in my life, I feel happy and strong. Thanks to all of you who work to give visibility to those who are different. A big hug and lots of encouragement to everyone. You are beautiful!

Your comment has just made my entire day, thank you so, SO much! As an asexual myself, I absolutely empathize with that feeling you described. It was the worst thing to feel like there was something wrong with me, or that I was broken in some way, and I absolutely hate that so many of us have had to go through that. I am SO thankful that you and your partner are together and have a similar story to Summer and Phoebe’s!! I’ve had a few people comment on here thinking this type of relationship is unrealistic, and while it can be rare, you and your partner are proof that they can work! Sending many blessings to you and your partner, and I hope you have countless happy years together 💜 Thank you for your kind words, and your incredible comment sharing your story!

@@JayPayProductions Of course, any relationship is possible, if the right people are involved. In my country they say: There's always a broken for an unbroken. I don't know if it makes sense in English. X) I am now a middle-aged adult, none of this even existed in my youth; especially in a small town. But the new generations are becoming much more open and tolerant. They are working hard to make visible and normalise the right of everyone to be themselves. And the web allows for immediate and worldwide dissemination. I learn every day from young bloggers, youtubers and content creators. And I feel very grateful to all of them. I could say that you have changed my life, for the better, forever. I would like to say to all of you that if someone, friend or partner, doesn't love you as you are, they really don't love you. Don't waste your heart. Our love is only for those who deserve it!

@@Bieitols I absolutely love what you said and agree with you - any relationship can work if it’s between the right people! And thank you for being open minded and willing to learn and grow in this new age of technology and identifies, etc. There’s a lot of people in the world, as I’m sure we both know, who are not that way, and don’t want to adapt to change or be willing to learn. So I appreciate you and your open-mindedness! And I LOVE your last bit there! Yes, such an important thing to remember. Those who truly love you will love you for who you TRULY are!

This was uploaded last year, and I only recently discovered it, thanks to my suggested videos. If it weren't for that, who knows if I would have stumbled across it. As someone who identifies as a lesbian ace, it's refreshing and wonderful to see even a short film with ace representation. I feel like the ace community is not well-represented in the media, so this means a lot to me. I love everything about the film, from the characters to the storyline and the ending. Thank you for creating such a wonderful work. I know there are people out there who identify as ace, as well as those who are struggling or coming to terms with their identity. I'm glad that if they discover this film, they can feel represented and not alone.

This nearly brought me to tears. ❤ I think I’m realizing I’m ace and I’m gay and not having s** is part of what destroyed my last relationship. It ended my engagement, she couldn’t take it. She said it was okay but it wasn’t. I hope I can find someone that wants to be with me but is okay cuddling instead ❤

LOVE THIS! My gray-ace heart is screaming! This is such a well done short film, and I totally resonated with Phoebe researching what asexuality was and realizing that that's what her identity was.

As someone who recently came out as lesbian, and an ace all the way, this is so heartwarming and realistic. And the way you portrayed asexuality so subtle and natural, I'm just in love with this.
