I've been on this weird, beautiful, frustrating journey as a zoo in the zoo community for over 2 decades now, with one human relationship under my belt with a zoolady that ultimately ended because how much I loved canines and needing my private alone-time with them. I have a few zooey fantasies but irl I can 100% do without human intimacy. But there's still 2 big reasons left why I think having a human, asexual life partner to live with (that is, roomate-style with different bedrooms, only greater overall freedom of course) would be extremely beneficial for all human and nonhuman family members:
A. Financial purposes: tax incentives (depending on state), income stability for both humans and especially for all nonhuman partners sake.
B. Basic human companionship and support: Having human companionship without hiding, someone to depend on IRL to have your back in life, to enjoy meaningful conversations with, a meditation partner, another pack member to hug and cuddle with on a cold winter night while watching a movie, and finally, someone to be there for truly understanding emotional support IRL for when either of our partners dies.
My point is, this was all a seemingly contradicting thing in my mind until I found out asexual "domestic partnerships" were a common thing and considered it in the context of living with an exclusive zoo. So I'm curious, how many exclusives can relate to this and have ever considered something like this.
