Experimenting as an adult (piefed.social)

I never experimented with my sexuality as a teenager - dysphoria, depression, autism, etc. You get the gist. Good news: I'm finally starting to get my ducks in a row at the decrepit old age of 23 /j. Bad news: Oh god now I have to address this shit.

Gonna be honest, I have no ideas where to start. So... how did y'all figure out if you liked men/women/both/neither/whatever? Was it an instinctual thing that you just Noticed one day? Did you have to go on dates and try things out?

I'm a little nervous about coming across as an asshole if I hook up with someone and then realize "Oh! I hate this!" halfway through, y'know?

At 25 I realized I was Asexual (growing up was weird. I didnt feel any sorta way for people)

At 30 I realized I was Agender (I always thought of my self as a person rather than as a gendered person)

I also believe in clothes being optional.
