OMG YOU SLASHED FRANCES HODGSON BURNETT'S MASTERPIECE OMG
That's brilliant. Despite many problematic elements inherent in her century-old novels, she's a storytelling idol of mine. I've read several of her lesser-known works, and I'm, like, an expert on A Little Princess, which I adore. Though it is sadly short of boy characters and I've never been much for femmeslash.
The more I'm open about my asexuality (I really need an icon--I'll use my Sherlock one for now), the more I hear accounts like yours, which make me think the sexuality spectrum isn't NEARLY as weighted towards the Hollywood horny-het middle as Harvey Weinstein would have had us believe all those years.
Your description of your own relationship to M/M is just about perfect, including "Which I guess might be weird? WHO KNOWS." That, exactly.
