You probably have a very low sex drive, or possibly, no sex drive at all. Either way, you're still pretty young (same age as me actually), and I'd say I wouldn't worry yet. As long as you're progressing at a normal pace I'd say your fine. I have a friend who is progressing through puberty and also has no emotional feelings towards girls or guys, but I'm not sure what the reasoning is behind this. Just give it time, I think you'll grow attracted to a girl or a guy, but as I said, I don't know for sure, it is possible to have no sex drive and to not be emotionally attracted to either sex.

I agree with Underground Network, some people just have a very low sex drive and some (very rarely) even call themselves "asexual" meaning they have no sexual desire or interests at all. At your age it's near impossible to know this, all you can really do is sit back, enjoy the time you're having at the moment and wait for things to happen. :)

Your attraction to porn doesn't mean anything. Porn isn't reality and isn't the appropriate measure to determine what you're attracted to.

But still hormones go up and down. You can have a high sex drive at times and you can have a low sex drive at times. It's completely normal and you shouldn't worry.

Umm.. Anthony... He said he's not attracted to porn, he didn't say he is attracted to porn. I don't know whether you misread it, or mistyped, but just letting you know; but other than that, I completely agree with what you said.

I knew what he meant. I just meant that his attraction, no matter how much or how little (in this case, very little). I guess I wasn't completely clear.

I agree, the fact that porn doesn't interest you means nothing. Most people consider porn extremely unsexy and unattractive and still have normal sex drives.

ur just going through curious times and you'll
eventually become more attrcted to the opposite sex o same sex.
either way, it will happen.

The lack of desire to have a romantic relationship isn't a fault or something to worry about. It just means that you are content with being single for the time being. It is normal to feel like this around the age of 14.
You are still growing, in every sense, and IMO it is a healthy sign that you are growing up without the constant need to have a romantic partner. Girls will become more prominent in your general social interest soon enough.

just a low to no sex desire or impluse at all. Some teens get a big sex drive where they are constanlltly horny and THINK they want to have sex. while others are develpoling but dont get a desire for sex until later on. No porn means you hvae a probaly dont have a sex drive for porn are usually used as a substitute for sex or a way to get rid of urges. If this continues you probably wont have a desire for sex until 18-21. Or you may be a late bloomer.

No problem with that man, I feel the same way too. That's sorta what comes with hormones and stuff, but not always. I personally just don't want a boyfriend right now.
It'll come with time, but I guess you're just not focusing on that right now or aren't getting the urges yet. That's natural.
