ur so brave for coming out to her! im sorry she doesnt understand u are validI'm panromantic asexual, and I go by she/her.
I remember questioning my sexuality way back when I was super young. I thought I was bi for 2 years, then lesbian for 3 years, and after doing research and finding more out about myself I found out I was actually panromantic asexual.
I came out to my mother around pride month, and she said that'll change when I explained to her what asexuality meant.
