Mr. Cuddlebunny Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Never ever. I've had.. well, at one point I'd have called them crushes, but I'm really not so sure now. There's been people who I've really 'clicked' with and found myself admiring and the likes, but even at that, I've had no desire to actually get involved with them. Whenever I try to think about it seriously, I just end up scrunching my nose up and thinking 'ew', or literally bore myself to sleep with it. I just have no desire for anything to actually go anywhere, because it'd creep me out more than anything. Really, it just tends to annoy me more than anything when people try to court me.

Liberty Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I answered 3 or 4. Those were the relationships that lasted the longest and involved people who meant something (emotionally) to me--altho I ended up loathing one of them!! :twisted: However, I am not--err--counting the briefer relationships and, dare I say it, one-night-stands. :redface: Link to post Share on other sites

Liberty Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I've never been in a romantic relationship. I'm satisfied with good friendships.:) Good friendships are great ! Never, ever underestimate the importance of friends! Actually I think I miss my old friends (both male and female) more than I do any guy I was ever involved with! Link to post Share on other sites

ke25 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 A couple, but I don't even know if I can call them "relationships". They were a complete waste of time and energy. I am so happy being asexual / aromantic :), I wouldn't change that for anything in the world. And the concept of "the right one" is rubbish (sorry if I offend romantic people). When people say they found the right one, soul mate, whatever, it means that they met someone in their surroundings that share some things in common. I really do not believe that in a planet with ca. 6 billion people there is only ONE person for you. There are certainly more than one that have a lot of things in common with you.

Denisa Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Yes, once. But it was purely a romantic relationship without sex. Link to post Share on other sites
Flying Hazels Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I've been in 3 relationships. They weren't ever sexual and none of them last more than a month. I feel ashamed to be so inexperienced with dating. Link to post Share on other sites
Denisa Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 You are still very young, what I should say I am ? :) My relationship lasted two years and I wonder, that he ( my partner ) has been so patient with me. Link to post Share on other sites

Hannibal Lecter Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 No. It's impossible, you know. You can't say: Hey i really care about you just stay away from me and thus don't dare to cheat on me! Link to post Share on other sites
Puma Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Not really. The few crushes I've had have been entirely unrequited. There was one girl who I went out with a few times, but it was too short and too casual to really call it a relationship, I think. Link to post Share on other sites
iamnotforever Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I had a boyfriend for the last handful of months of eighth grade. I had barely started puberty and he was a year younger than me. We never even kissed. Link to post Share on other sites
Rai Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I think 5 that actually counted as relationships. Two of which were over the internet and we never met in real person. Three of which cheated on me repeatedly Due to asexuality? Who knows. The first ones were not really sexual, and lasted for about a month each. The most recent one became sexual after we got married, and lasted for a year and a half until she divorced me. But the good thing about that one ending is at least I never have to have sex ever again! I'm surprised at how many aces have never had a relationship, although it really shouldn't be that surprising to me. Link to post Share on other sites
gray_imagination Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 physical, emotional, and/or "official"? LOL maybe 4ish? for some reason this question is more complicated than I expected. Link to post Share on other sites
articvibe Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 3 that have lasted more than 6 months the others i dont really count... now that i look back at it though they were more just really really good friends society has a small problem with people being intamate (which to there eyes looks damned sexual) good way to getaround that is "entering a reltionship" lol But now that im older and people no that im asexual there all good with sleeping with me..... asexuals need a word to describe that cause its really hard to explain to people especialy my mates there just think ive had sex with her and get seriously confused lol come to think of it most of the stuff i do seems to seriously confuse someone i know :D Link to post Share on other sites
In_Omnia_Paratus Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Sadly I'm in the most inconvenient asexual position, where I in no way ever want to have sex I think it's gross, and yet I'm a hopeless romantic :P I've been in four relationships, all of them wonderful guys, they're still some of my best friends to date (no pun intended hehe) :D Link to post Share on other sites
sakura_alice Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 One, and it definitely taught me a lot. Before, everything about what I wanted in a relationship was speculation, but now I have a better idea of what I do and don't like. It lasted two months, and we slept together on occasion (no sex, just sleep overs). During those two months I discovered more about my limits, like I love kissing and cuddling, but I hate french kisses and long make-out sessions. <_< Link to post Share on other sites
ChaliceFlame Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I put never since mine are so short lived. Many have ended up with betrayal type issues leading to reinforced my trust issues and making it harder to try again. Link to post Share on other sites
Cupcake_Master Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Twice, if you can call it that. I was twelve years old at the time, I didn't like either of the boys much. My "friends", a girl I liked who loathed me and my cousin, made me and this troublesome boy become a "couple" after I accidentally said I liked him, which I didn't. I just said it..I'm not sure why I said it, I was probably panicky. I "dated" him twice. It was more like " Say "hi" a few times a day at school, and never be together" " until he moved to another class due to him being a trouble maker. I "dated" another boy, who I originally liked, and at least we became friends. I never got to break up with him though, I refused to go to school before I could. To make things short, if you count sitting next to each other and sharing snacks in middle school "dating" then yes. If not..No. Link to post Share on other sites
Z3N Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Yes, more than six, but I only count three of them and was only "in love" with one. Before I knew I was asexual, I would date guys I liked and then sabotage the relationship.. Link to post Share on other sites
sunny_girl Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I've had two relationships, but they were both with the same person, with about an eight month gap between the two. Both times it ended in disaster. Link to post Share on other sites
Filmfan Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I had one semi-relationship when I was 23. I obviously liked him at the time, and he obviously liked me. We went through the hanging out phase for awhile, and then he moved it to the making out phase. I found that boring, and he was unnerved by my lack of experience. It kind of crumbled apart after that, but he still followed me around like a lovesick puppy dog afterwards, even after he got engaged to someone else. Anyway, it's never made me want to try again...

Saggia Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Years ago, before I ever heard of asexuality, I tried very, fery hard to fit in and dated a few different guys. I always wound up feeling horrible because they thought I was cold and unfeeling. I guess I was unfeeling in a way, I just could not respond to their attempts to "stimulate" me. The kisses were not so bad, but the groping was just more than I could take. Link to post Share on other sites
Rappy28 Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Never. Well, once, this guy asked me out. I said "yes". And then, nothing happened and we broke up. So I'm not counting it. :lol: Link to post Share on other sites

Guest FrozenCherry Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 No, I cannot call it as an relationship, that was more like a dating. I would not call my internet crushes/loves an relationships either. No, I know nothing about relationships :P Link to post Share on other sites
