Though that might seem a little far, I don't think there's even any other way at this point- 😅 Fake Dreamsexuals are so thick-headed, man >﹏<I can't believe they legitmately think that it's okay to have their entire sexuality revolve around a singular person, just because they stan them 😶

Yeah, because if you said you were dreamsexual, and meant it by the *valid* term, people would probably think that you were, instead, referring to the toxic one, hence unnecessary hate and chaos ensue- ~(>_<。)\ It's a shame seeing what something with two meanings, the one being incredibly negative, can do ╯︿╰

I… actually was for a short time. I was a valid dreamsexual.

Then I had some minor trauma, didn’t dream for a while, and my ace-ness took advantage. I no longer feel attraction in dreams.

Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that, starling- :( I hope none of that trauma was too serious, as well as that it hasn't had too much of an effect on your life. If it makes you feel any better, however, my own sexuality is kind of the same way: Some past traumas of mine kind of made me lose any strong bonds, all genuine attraction and romantic/sexual feelings towards real people (at least after a few days, since the attraction might be there, but only for a short while), and now I only feel such things towards fictional characters (I'm fictosexual/romantic)- 😅 But, yeah, I know exactly what you're talking about and, if you ever want to vent it out or anything, I'm always happy to help out and listen (and my Meme Chat is always open!) (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ) Just know and remember that, no matter your identity, you are completely valid (as long as you aren't a fake Dreamsexual, or anything else of the sort) ♥ I hope everything is going all right for you as of now, and I'm proud of you for being able to figure yourself out, even in the worst of times (❁´◡`❁) My best wishes are with you; stay strong ♥

Yeah. It was just some minor pandemic trauma and the trauma of watching a ten year old beat my roommate at camp. When I say beat, I mean beat.

The ten year old also emotionally used and abused me. I was 13. I don’t know how tf she was able to do it, but she did.

Oh dear, yeah- People can, unfortunately, be heartless monsters such as those 😟 However, I do so hope that those people have either become better than who they were back then, or have at least gotten karma done to them for their actions. After all, as somebody who has, too, been emotionally abused and manipulated (which was even done to me by people who were very close to me), as well as some other things, I understand as to how that can be emotionally and mentally scarring. It's definitely not fun stuff to live with, though it's also incredibly difficult to let go of, for some reason. One of the things that helps me most is just remembering that that all is in the past, and it's over. The chances of encountering those people ever again are incredibly low, and so I shouldn't be so worried or tense about it, even though it has certainly left me with quite the damage, especially since I was also rather young at the time. Another thing that can help is turning a Google Doc into a bit of a vent diary, you know? Use that to just write out your feelings and get all of that inner stress out and, of course, if you don't have Google Docs, there are plenty of other resources to confide in, such as this:
https://www.rapidtables.com/tools/notepad.html
It's a private site, so it'll only be accessible to yourself, thus meaning you can go as wild as you want with it (‾◡◝) Of course, everybody will have their own coping methods that work best for them, so you've just gotta find your own in the meantime <3 Who knows, maybe even just telling me all of this is helping you out, and so I just want you to know that you're always free to come and vent to me about this stuff, all right?
Love you for being able to get that all out, Queen ♥

Oh thank you!
Also, ficto is very valid. :)
I hate when people make fun of it, say it’s not, or even say they are ironically.
0 ups, 3y
No problem! ヾ(•ω•`)o And, well- Thank you for saying such, because I really do hate as to how much the sexuality can get made fun of/called "invalid" due to fake fictosexuals/romantics using the term incorrectly :\ I mean, that's even another reason as to why I'm sometimes so scared to come out, because some teenage white girl with a tan and Starbucks is *definitely* gonna hear it and, right away, be like, "Omg, I once had a crush on this one cute anime guy, so I *must* be fictosexual/romantic, too! :D" Like, that's not how it works at all, especially considering as to how you, without a doubt, have a crush on literally the whole football team- 😭🤚 But then, you know, that makes it seem less valid since that'll make it appear as though fictosexuals/romantics are just "simps having taken it too far" -.- It's not a term that you can just throw around because you find fictional characters "cute", have very slight feelings towards them, or anything else of the sort. It's when you really only feel genuine attraction, strong bonds, and sexual/romantic feelings towards and *ONLY* towards fictional characters, instead of real people. Hence, I thank you kindly for knowing it's valid, when used correctly *^____^*

You know what? I’ve honestly known about the real dreamsexual meaning before the toxic one. I learned about the toxic one here.

Eyy, that's great! I really wish the valid Dreamsexual would be more well-known than the other, because I'm one of the people who learned of the fake Dreamsexual first. Genuinely, I hate how the toxic version of this sexuality seems to have become more widespread than the valid one. Then again, the toxic stuff is the stuff that's always the most spoken of, it seems >︿<

Yeah, conflict sells more than some story of how people are nice. That’s sadly how the press works

That is, unfortunately, 100% true 👊😔 But then we wonder as to why the world is so negative and hateful a majority of the time :\ We really need more positive news, instead of all this constant negativity, at least once in a while.
