[on how she came to terms that she is asexual] The big 'aha' moment for me was when I went through a really horrific breakup a few years back, and I was single for the first time in my adult life, like since I was 18. I had a lot of things to figure ... up to that point, I also hadn't really come to terms with my attraction to females. It was a very simultaneous 'coming to Jesus' moment - that's a funny way to put it - of realizing that I was both asexual and biromantic. I think one informed the other a lot and vice versa.
