Hi, 

 

Long story short, twenty something... Male and confused as hell.     

 

Always just assumed I had a very very low sex drive... and have tried to force myself into it to keep partners happy etc resulting in much stress and frustration all around. Started being honest with myself  a couple of months ago.  Realised whilst I'm attracted to women, I have zero interest in sex.      

 

I'm here to get some perspective... and learn something!

Welcome! It’s never a good idea to force yourself to do something to make someone else happy, especially at your own expense. There’s always someone who will feel the same way, and maybe you’ll find a special someone on here.

Thanks,  I always assumed that because I was attracted to women it couldn't possibly be Asexuality. Frustrating how much time and energy I spent in the past trying make things work

Hey MrJ

 

Welcome to AVEN and the Ace gang (:

 

It's completely normal to mistaken low libido for asexuality. Low libido is having a low sex drive, asexuality is purely based on how we don't feel any attraction towards others in a sexual nature. Frustration is a natural discovery process, it's a pity most of us have to go through it but it's also lead all of us to this site! I hope you become enlightened through these forums.
