T2yRW Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Hello, I have a question that I hope someone could answer, because this has annoyed me a lot. (Warning: TMI maybe?) I tentatively describe myself as grey-ace since one, or two years ago. I am now 19. The reason for this because while I don't have any sexual attraction, I do have a libido. I can find some people to be sexually attractive, but the thought of myself having sex with them would just weird me out. But the problem is that I still have a libido and can still get sexually frustrated. And I don't have a way to release it. I have tried all kinds of porn, but to me they are just boring, repetitive or kind of icky. So does masturbation. I try to ignored my libido but sometimes it can get very annoying and make me restless and unable to focus. I just want to know if anybody has the same problem as I have and whether there is any solution to it. Link to post Share on other sites
Yeast Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 This used to confuse me too. How could I not desire sex but still experience sexual attraction? This forum seems to suggest I can. I satisfy myself with porn but my experience is just as a spectator. Maybe you can live comfortably with your libido if you can identify what it really desires. Many people don't desire sex but like other sorts of physical intimacy. Kissing, cuddling, etc. A really close friendship might be something satisfactory. Romance for me is much more intellectual than emotional. All I can state with certainty is if one keeps trying they will achieve what they want. They will find what they are searching for. It might take quite some time but it will happen. At least that's what I believe. Maybe the key is belief itself. Keep believing and good luck. Link to post Share on other sites
