View Full Version : Something is off with me: sexually if that makes sense.

I have a question and situation, I am young, 19, but a few things set me apart from most, lack of sexual urges yet I do get aroused sometimes, slight fear of sex I see it as for other people and never me and as weird if that makes any since, and lastly I have never dated nor been so sure of my sexuality maybe from never dating.

Should I be worried by how mixed up my sexuality is? I have never really felt much attraction to anyone else except a few family members but that is a family love. I have never wanted to even talk to girls or guys despite the fact that guys arouse me, but should I be worried by how unsure and at times, gray-sexual I am?

Have a come out the closet? No, but to be honest there doesn't seem to be a closet to put me in since I am so gray sexually. Maybe I haven't met the right girl yet, maybe it's from my lack of confidence and long term depression but I doubt anyone is this confused sexually because they don't fit into any catergory or even like the idea of sex.

No, I do not always think of this, rarely actually, but this is one the moments I have and am asking something.

An update------------------------------
My most non platonic attraction I have had was to two girls in different years of high school but other than that I have been as if I'm asexual minus the occasional look at a guy with a nice body. I have never done anything romantically or sexually no dates, no experimenting. When I get aroused often I am alone and deal with it by myself. I can look at someone who is attractive even get aroused but I never seek to do anything about it or fantasize on it.

Consider sharing an experience where you felt the most sexual attracted to someone. It would help give us some perspective on the range of attraction you have for people. Personally, it sounds like you might be Asexual, which is nothing to be ashamed about, but you may no longer have sexual & emotional desires for others beyond platonic love, as you described. However, if this only occurs when you feel down or generally unexcited it could just mean that you've lost interest for the time being. This happens to most people (it even happens to me quite often) and you shouldn't give it too much attention because it isn't permanent. I wouldn't worry about it for now. :) Feel free to share more if it's still getting to you.
