*assumes aromantic-asexuals can talk about this too*
I've never come out to my family because saying what I am isn't really a simple case of announcing it and I'm done, because most people don't even know what it is

I suppose they don't really need to know though, they might already have an idea by the fact I never show interest towards people in that way.
Told one of my friends (some of you will know her as Lizzy) on the phone though, and it was fairly easy to describe it to her.
