Has anyone accompanied their parent/child to the gate?

Specifically Newark EWR airport. I saw online that there’s a United counter you can go at all US airports with your passport and ask for a gate pass to accompany minors and seniors, but I’ve also seen old posts of people saying it’s airport dependent which is confusing.

My dad is pretty old and knows zero English but he needs to go back home next month. I’d rather not buy an entire flight for myself just to take him because it’s so expensive nowadays, and he pretty much knows what to do once he arrives at the airport in his home country, so I’m really only needed for the stuff here in America.

So I’m wondering if anyone has successfully done gotten a gate pass and accompanied a family member?

“Attracted” to bodies but stops when face is attached. Am I the only one?

So I know I’m asexual (F25). I’ve known for ten years. However, the first couple years I went back and forth between pansexual because in my fantasies I’d still consider trying sex with whatever gender. (I’m also aegosexual)

I’ve recently slowly realized that I am attracted to certain body types. Like, I still have a libido so I watch porn once in a blue moon when it lines up with me being bored at 3am like right now, and I realized I can only watch faceless videos, mostly focused on the genitals. I also watch it on mute but that’s because I hate the exaggerated stuff plus I’m scared someone somewhere is gonna hear it lol

Back to the fantasies, for the most part they don’t involve me, instead an OC. I’m kinda like the omniscient narrator, sometimes watching from the OC’s pov, sometimes I’m off to the side. I try to imagine partners but they’re never with a face, and never with an identity (especially never someone I know irl…grosses me out massively). Which led to my realization that I’m kinda???? Sexually attracted to specific bodies???sometimes??? If they exist as a nameless faceless identity-less being. A tool for the daydream i guess.

I only really feel this “attraction” when my libido is on and I have an ongoing daydream with a good plot I can insert my OC into. I put it in quotation marks cuz it’s a kinda disconnected feeling idk it’s probably the aegosexuality but at the same time it stood out to me because I want to imagine myself and that body for a moment. Idk idk

Does any of that make sense?? Does anyone else relate?? Idk if I worded it correctly and not weird.

I’ve (25F) identified as asexual for like ten years now and I’ve had moments of questioning throughout the years (I’m a sucker for nice people. Sue me I’m lonely). I have thought maybe I was attracted to specific body types/parts? But then quickly realizing no I don’t.

The feeling that I’ve always confused for attraction might just be gender envy lol I saw a TikTok of a lesbian explaining this for her when it came to men and I was like…..wait yeah….there’s specific types of guys and girls I gravitate to and specific parts and it’s literally because I want to have it. I want my boobs a big bigger but I also want to be buff etc.

Basically: I don’t want you, I want to be you

This honestly cleared up some things for me lol. Still ace.

Anyone relate?
