Ace Pride
He was 80 when he relized....
Jacob was eighty when he finally found there was a name for the way he felt. His family blamed Vietnam for him never getting married. The truth was he’d been in love a dozen times over the years, but never knew how to explain that he didn’t want, or need, to express that sexually. When his great-great-nephew Austin came out as asexual, and explained to Jacob what that meant, it was like a bolt of lightning had lit up the world. He’d given up being a pilot after the war, but now he knew that he was still an ace.
