I think for a lot of aces, at least before "asexual" became part of the common orientation lexicon, it's a journey of tiny steps, and more a process of elimination of other orientiations rather than a sudden realization. Perhaps the younger generations will be able to know right away due to it being more common in everyday language/visible.
I went through quite a rolodex of orientations. I didn't feel 'straight", I knew something was..."off".

My Girlfriend Almost Got Me Killed Side Stories
Chapter 1: Released: Lion and Gazelle
(Art: Mai-sensei)
Summary: Tanaka Kanoko writes about Shiro-san and Kaori-san’s first meeting.
Quote: Tanya was good at this game. With her platinum blonde hair, she made me think of a lioness waiting to pull down a timid gazelle. If Tanya could bring her down, she would be a prize trophy.

Today's queer small press release: Antonia Aquilante's MM fantasy romance: To Love the Dragon King.
Once upon a time, before the hunts, dragons were plentiful in the world. Now they exist only in legend…except in the land of Ivria. Without the Dragon Talent...
Today's queer indie author review! Stubbed Toes and Dating Woes by Dahlia Donovan:
"Niclas is a 28-year-old autistic man. Falk has been in love with Niclas for years. Both men are ace... a sweet, fascinating story with no sex, no suspense, and no surprises. 4 stars."
"The world-building is seamless, with beautiful details that give a real sense of what the world Xelle lives in is like. I really enjoyed Night Ivy, from start to finish. I need more Xelle."
I think one think I loved about reddit's #aaaaaaacccccccce subreddit was how inclusive it was. No matter what part of the #LGBTQ spectrum you were, your posts were often well recieved by everyone there. I hope to continue that on #kbin's aaaaaaacccccccce community
"Don't you want to have a family?"
I can't help but feel betrayed ya'll!
Dunno if it's a glitch with just me, or an oversight that everyone on kbin deals with.
Increasing the frequency of asking does not raise the likelihood of it happening
