I have no idea how to come out to friends

Coming out

Title. I'm about to turn 18, and I've known I'm ace for about 3 years now. I've already come out to my family (who've been pretty supportive) but none of my friends know. I'm tired of all the sex jokes my friends throw around, and I know some of them think I'm either gay or an incel. Is there an easy way to come out?

The way I came out to my friends is just casually bring it up once or teice- then a day later i was like 'ya know that asexual thing I brought up? Yeah I'm that-' or smth like that. Sorry if it's not the best advice

Nah this is great, I'll probably do this. I don't think any of my friends know what asexuality is so this seems pretty smart

You could go around with a little ace flag or button until they ask you what does it mean (that's how I came out to my friends - I feel its less awkward/scary than trying to bring it up yourself)
