Hey everyone! Group admin  DreamingHeart here.
After doing some reflection on my sexuality over the past year, I think I've finally realized that I'm not actually on the asexual spectrum after all. As such, I've decided I no longer identify as demisexual.

It's been a difficult journey....Demisexuality has been a part of my identity for so many years now that, in some ways, it's hard to let go of it. However, I've come to realize that, for me, identifying as demisexual was actually a coping mechanism that I used in response to an incident of sexual trauma that I experienced shortly before I adopted demisexuality as a label. Though it pains me to admit it, in truth, I never really was demisexual at all.

Admitting this makes me feel really guilty. I have a hard time not feeling like it means I was a "fake" and was just "lying" to myself and everyone else. I assure you, though, I truly did believe I was demisexual at the time; I was always sincere in identifying the way that I did. Though I may not be "one of you" like I thought I was, I hope you all can forgive me for my mistake. I'm so sorry I let you all down....

Going forward, I feel it would be in everyone's best interests if this group was run by an actual demi- person. As such, I am seeking someone to replace me as the group's owner.
