Am I sex repulsed or neutral? Or… Positive?

I don’t want to have sex with someone, ever. Not even in a relationship to make the other person happy. The very idea of me having sex disgusts me. (I’m aegosexual)

BUT ALSO; I don’t mind if people are horny, make sexual jokes, wear revealing/sexy clothes, express their horniness, sex in music, people talking about it in general, etc. I don’t mind any of that in the least bit!

When most people mean sex repulsed, they mean they hate sex with a burning passion in anything and everything.
When people mean sex neutral, they mean neutral to everything, which means they don’t mind having sex at all even if they aren’t attracted or horny.

I wish I was able to have crushes

This isn't me being aro or acephobic those sexualities are very valid these are just my honest feelings. Thought I should mention as a post like this of mine was removed for that reason.

I'm 18F and I've just never had a crush on anyone. Hell, no strong platonic interests either.

I see people who have crushes or are in relationships and their lives seem so interesting for it. Like, for no reason other than attraction, this one person is so captivating for no reason. Doesn't matter if you feel heartbreak at the end, it's like people say: better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

It's to the point where I feel so left out because of it. By all accounts I'm probably aromantic asexual, and I hate that. I only started caring about it in the past couple of years. Before this the idea of people being attracted to me disgusted me. Now it's like I love the idea of being in a relationship and kissing etc etc in theory but there's nobody I have the urge to put it on in real life? I think that's how most people feel.

If there was a way I could force myself to want someone in that way I would. I've found myself wishing I actually said yes to going out with this one guy that asked me out in secondary school, even though I didn't see him that way. I even tried making myself think of him that way, which didn't really work.

Anyway, he started dating my friend, and turns out he was an absolute psycho. I know it's a horrible thing to think but even then I feel left out and wish I was her almost.

The closest thing I've had to a crush is this fixation on a fictional character, but it's obviously not the same thing.

Maybe I just want something interesting in life, someone to rely on. I'm also at the point where I have no direction of what to do next (i just finished college) so maybe that's why.

People say I should accept myself for who I am but honestly I'm not happy. Help me please? Is this normal?

Question for non asexual people with asexual partners

This is very simple and straight to the point. If your partner is asexual, has no interest in sex but doesn’t mind having sex with you because they know you want it. Why would you still have sex with them even if they say they don’t mind? Especially knowing that it’ll be 100% one sided? How could you enjoy sex with someone for basically your own sake?

I know asexuals can enjoy sex before anyone says anything. But Im talking about the asexuals who really could go the rest of their life without sex but only end up doing it because their partner seems to need it, so they just try to satisfy THEM which to me I think makes the sex not 50/50 at all.

Did you also thought you were bi because you felt the same about everyone?

I thought I was bisexual because I felt the same for everyone. Then I realized that what I feel is nothing for everyone. So now I just label myself as queer cause anyone could probably not but almost get it if you know what I mean. Have you experienced this ?

Also what's your sexuality?

Do you ever talk/think about romance drive?

So I see people talk about sex drive all the time but I dont see people talk about romance drive. And it's been a problem in all of my relationships way more than my tiny sex drive has been.

So the second I learned about asexual I knew that was me. But then I learned about aromantic shortly there after and I still don't know if tbats me. I say I'm aromantic cause I dont want to explain it to people. But I do want to a romantic partner. I want to have someone to go on dates and cuddle with. Someone I can show my whole self too. Someone to take to funerals (have you ever gone to a funeral by yourself? One of the worst experiences of my life.)

But

I only want to go on dates like once every other month. And things like gift giving, kissing, holding hands, all of those couple things I only like to do on the rare occasion. I do like cuddling a lot but I need my own bedroom and bathroom. I hate sharing a bathroom or a bed. And I need plenty of time to myself. Like at least two hours a day and at least 2 days a week. I just don't think about romance or wanting to be romantic often.

And yeah that would make me a terrible girlfriend. But all of the advice I ever got is that relationships are work and I'm just being lazy or selfish. But I feel smothered by affection. I feel about it the same way I do sex. I want it a very small amount and I'm willing to put in the work to go above what I want but there is a limit.

Does this make sense to anyone else or am I just lazy/selfish/crazy?

I posted on a relationship advice Reddit and now I need a hug

I posted in a relationship advice Reddit basically about how my partner is upset with our sex life. I won’t post many details but basically my boyfriend is regularly upset we don’t have sex as often as he wants to (which is every day) but we do around 1-3 (more like 3) times a week and as someone on the asexual scale that’s a lot.

Anyways some people were kind but a lot of people were also saying stuff like “you aren’t willing to do the bare minimum” or “you’re always going to have this problem” and just the idea that I should compromise because that’s what you do in relationships. Some people compared having sex when you don’t want to to listening to your partner when they’ve had a bad day.

Idk man. I feel like i really needs hug and feel so alone….
