  • My name is Daniel, and I identify as homoromantic asexual. Here's my story.
    This is going to be the last regular video on the channel for the time being. I hope you've enjoyed tagging along through all this nonsense. I'd like to thank you all for supporting my little hobby, and I hope you've gained something from it too :)

    Your channel has been a constant source of comfort, identification and solidarity for someone like me who always knew about his naturally endowed aromanticism/ asexuality and was confident in its steadfastness. ( Though I find other men sensual and attractive in an aesthetic way but may be that is also owing to my creative mind as a poet; I own that part without hesitation because to me attraction is fundamental and beautiful)
    Your channel and more over your elegance and simplicity helped me to own up that facet of my personal identity.
    Thank you for this journey. May you thrive and be true to your authentic self. Kisses and love to your two feline babies ( they are the ones who are your true soulmates and I completely mean that since my own feline baby Queenie is my true friend and source of innocence and anchor, away from the corrupt world of humans)
    Always smile. Thank you Daniel for according my awakening as an ace/aro with clarity.

    Thank you for all your hard work over the years, Daniel! Your videos have definitely been an important part of me figuring out my orientation, and I’m sure that’s been the case for many others as well. Stepping away from a platform when you know you’re ready to is a very healthy thing to do, and I wish you well. We’ll miss you!

    Hey Daniel, I usually do not comment but this time I basically have to: a few years ago a video of yours was recommended to me by the almighty algorithm. I cannot remember which one. I watched it out of curiosity, only having heard of asexuality in passing-by years ago without much consideration. In that very moment, I realised that my experience was very similar to yours and I considered being asexual from this video on, watching more videos and researching other sources. I came out as gay a few years prior and thought my lack of interest in sex and relationships came from denial of my same-sex attraction. But in large parts owing to you, I realised to separate them. I subscribed to your channel then and have always enjoyed your content, knowing that there are others out there with the same rare intersectional orientation and according experiences. As my story indicates, you have reached the goals you outlined and you have every right to move on. Thank you

    Thank you for making such amazing and informative content! I absolutely love the way you explain things. Whenever I tell my allo friends about stuff like asexuality, aromanticism, and aspec microlabels, I always refer them to your videos. You also had helped me to share my story for Aces Assemble, and I always appreciate that. I wish you the best of luck in your future pursuits. Much love and respect!

    Hi Daniel! Thank you again for creating this channel and for all of the lovely Ace & Aro content that you created over the years. I discovered your channel a couple of years ago and it really helped me to learn more about myself and take pride in my identity. I personally loved your ACE Week contributions and your interview sessions with other Ace/Aro RUclipsrs. I viewed your channel as a valuable resource that helped me to navigate a sometimes elusive and confusing world. Thanks again and I hope that you enjoy a much deserved rest. Cheers to you!🍰🖤🤍💜

    Maybe this is why Willow was wanting to be in the shot so much, if it might well be her last chance to be on the internet.
    Thank you for making videos, it was good and we'll certainly miss your content.
    While your channel may not have been where I found out about Split Attraction and Asexuality (that would be Confirmation Class and David J. Bradley respectively) I certainly feel better able to express and understand how I feel about myself and felt more comfortable in myself.
    See ye efter (like at AceCon) and A'm gled tae meet ye.

    Thank you so much for making these videos. I found the channel at the beginning of last year or maybe toward the end of 2020 and it’s helped me understand myself so much better. I always knew there was something different about me, but no labels ever felt right so I just assumed I was straight but just didn’t want sex for some reason. I thought there was something wrong with me for so long especially once I got into middle school and realized that other people my age were interested in relationships in a different way than I was. In high school I would hear kids talking about sex and couldn’t understand why they were so interested in it, but at the same time I was confused because I did want some kind of relationship and maybe a partner someday. Now through watching your videos, I have realized that I am asexual panromantic. I came out to my closest friends and my brother last year and they’ve all been super supportive. I am slowly becoming more comfortable and proud of my identity, it helps to have friends who are also part of the LGBTQ plus community and who understand a little bit of what I’m going through even if they’re not ace. Again, thank you so much Daniel for making such educational videos and helping me understand myself!!! 🏳️‍🌈🖤🤍💜

    Daniel, thank you for creating Slice of Ace and for sharing your knowledge, insight and experiences! It was one of the first channels that I found when I started my ace journey and I truly appreciate your perspective and the way that you approach things!
    I hope that you feel proud of this part of your life and of the support that you have provided! I also hope that you continue to feel creative and to find joy in whatever you do next!

    Thank you for all of your work. Putting yourself out there to help others is pretty cool. I and many others I'm sure feel better about ourselves because we watched your videos. It's a tough thing to feel inferior or broken. Your channel was a place of healing. If and when you find something you want to do again on RUclips, I will certainly be subscribed again. Thank you.

    Just discovered this channel, but I’m glad I did. I’ve always felt I was somewhere on the ace spectrum but I recently discovered (and fully came to term with) my asexuality a few months ago. I’m trying to learn as much as possible to educate myself, and others if need be, because there’s so much misinformation and misconceptions about ace people. Thank you for being so open and creating this content 💜
    Also, although you’re going away from the YT platform, I hope you feel comfortable to come back one day. I’ll definitely be binge watching all the content made so far lol

  • @bethmonroe7824

    I’ve thoroughly enjoyed your videos. It has been so helpful to hear other peoples’ experiences in the times that I’ve questioned using the label of ace. I wish you well with your life and hope you enjoy your extra free time, but know that your videos will be missed.

    Hey Daniel, I just wanted to say thank you so much for everything you've done on this channel, your videos have been a great source of learning and comfort for me! When I started watching your videos, I was still in the phase of finding out about asexuality and questioning myself. And you've made me feel very supported throughout coming out, entering a relationship and briefly questioning whether I could be demi. I haven't been on your channel in a long while (and even watched this video late) probably because my aceness didn't consume me so much anymore. But I'm grateful for this feeling of belonging and community that you provided - and entertainment, I remember loving your baking videos during covid! All the best to you! xoxo

    As someone who is aro-ace enough to worry if they're not gay enough (i.e. aro-spec gay ace), your videos showed me that there are other people out there like me, so even for that alone, thank you. 😊

      None of those things are true. I've been with my boyfriend for 4 years, my libido is not low, and I'm very happy in my relationship. I still feel ace though, because I am 😊

    I started feeling gay when I was 12 or 13, but when I was 15 I experienced abuse and all sexual feelings disappeared and I was diagnosed with PTSD, but in 2023 my trauma completely disappeared and I started at the age of 32 and feeling gay feelings again, and I found a boyfriend, and I didn't think sex was traumatic anymore, but at the same time not very exciting, the thought and imagination is nice, but as soon as I start and start the actions, the desire quickly disappears, it's nice rarely, but it's never great fun, just a little fun, and I only like to do it 4 or 5 times a year, my boyfriend thinks the same, it's not exciting for him that often either.
    Sex is very boring, and we really manage without it, it's just that it gives a relaxing feeling in stressful situations, he and I think a few times a year, and to be honest, it's just a LITTLE fun, not a lot of fun. There is a difference between romance and eroticism. I like him sitting next to me on the sofa, holding my hand, sleeping in the same bed (without sexual activity), showering together (without sexual activity), we like closeness, but almost no sex
    I am not compleatly asexual, but not compleatly gay either, I am mixed 😊
    .... and I like it this way 😊
