About this listen
How do I get people to respect my boundaries around intimacy?
What if I don't want intimacy at all?
Is it selfish to pursue a relationship if I don't want romance?
These questions are not only a source of deep anxiety and frustration for ace and aro people - but limit the heights that ace and aro folks believe they can reach for in their lives. These questions make us believe that we should settle for less, when in fact we all deserve more.
Whether we're talking about friendships, romantic relationships, casual dates or casual intimate partners, this guide will help you not only live authentically in your ace and aro identity, but joyfully share it with others.©2025 Cody Daigle-Orians (P)2025 Hodder & Stoughton Limited

By drilling into to the basics of what actually makes up a healthy relationship, this radically inclusive and practical guide dives headfirst into the questions we are so often afraid to ask: can I be ace and find love without compromising myself? Can I build a relationship that suits me? Am I deserving of happiness? With love and affirmation, Cody guides the reader to an answer: a resounding, unapologetic YES! (Eris Young, author of They/Them/Their and Ace Voices)
