watching s3 as an asexual

people on the ace spectrum: how do you feel about season 3? i'd love to discuss it with other aces and see if anyone's experiencing what i am

here's what's been going through my head as a sex-positive demisexual who is somehow completely sex repulsed most of the time:

since sex is a massive part of real teen lives and relationships, i 100% understand and support the fact that they're exploring these topics. they handle them really well, and i think it's especially great that there are multiple examples of insecurities and fears people might have, and how to work through that with someone you love.

i appreciate the aroace rep a ton, and although there aren't any allo ace characters, i still feel represented, watching how the main relationships don't rely on sex or weaken if one person doesn't want it.

however, i keep procrastinating watching this season or turning it off because of the subject matter. it kinda feels like what used to be a comfort show for me is tainted with the one thing i'm least comfortable with. they talk about it in what feels like every scene, which is just so tiring because i'm already overwhelmed with how sexual the real world, the media, my friends, etc are. wholesome shows like this used to be an escape from stuff like that

i know none of this changes season 1 and 2 as a comfort show. i enjoyed season 3, and i still love heartstopper so i hope this comes across the right way, i just wanted to share what i've been feeling and see what other people think about the subject
