Inspired by one of the new married asexual's posts I've decided to make a poll to see how many people here are in relationships and what type.

And I'm happily single. :)

I'm quite happily single also.

No surprise to the two of you of course.

Happily single too.

Wow, it's so weird to be in the majority. I think I only know one other happily single person in real life....

Er... asexual LTR for me! (whew, feels weird to say that... but I wouldn't say we were "dating" at all!)

Whee, now I feel all small and insignificant next to all the happy singles!

Crap, I screwed up. I put in "LTR with sexual" when I meant "dating sexual".

Oh, and yes, they know about my asexuality.... but I know they don't / can't understand.

*Sigh* Dammit, why, with my moderator powers can I STILL not change my vote?? You should be able to if you need to. (-:þ

What does LTR mean?

I'm happily single! I am not up for that relationship stuff in my life right now.

What does LTR mean?

Long Term Relationship, I think.

I put "Single, but I want a relationship", because I think that falls closest to how I feel. I'm not sure though. I'm really not sure what I want at this point. I used top be sure I wanted a relationship, but after one disasterous relationship and months of being single, I think the latter is better.

Of course, if I had the chance to be in a relationship with someone who was Asexual and who I found that I could get along extremely well with/felt some connection to, I would probably change my mind.

dammit! I knew that! I just forgot. Though, I thought it more closely resembled LOTR. Oh dear.

My first relationship was "longterm". I think I've been turned off from relationships, even though, I was not that interested in relationships to begin with. I always just wanted to find my soulmate and not have to deal with anything beforehand! I still feel that way. >.< Silly me.

I had the same kind of idealistic view. Actually, I didn't even think about relationships until I was 18 or so, and then it was in those idealized "I'll find someone just like me, and I won't make any stupid choices along the way" terms. My first and only relationship proved me very very wrong.

I think I've been looking for a soulmate for as long as I can remember, but perhaps when I was younger it was in different terms. Throughout grade school school and junior high I just thought relationships were absolutely "stupid" and "rediculous"...I was a skeptic. And then I idealized a ton about my perfect match, or something, maybe that was just my way of being lonely, I don't know. And I had my first relationship and thought I was oh so in love, and I made myself to think, but I knew it was all wrong, I'm sure I must have somewhere. And that messed things up a whole bunch. And so relationships have been quite unappealing ever since, and I guess even before. But, the stupid choices make us learn, and I think that's a positive aspect.

But of course! I think hobbits would make awsome pals. I don't know about romantic pals, but I mean, everyone has their own taste.

I haven't had a relationship, so there's still a childish curiousity on what one would be like. Plus, I wanna have a piggy-back ride on someone that I care about, and who cares about me just as much. That'll be the best.

Happily single 8)

Hevent lived with an adult since I became an adult, and yes, every so often I think how neat it would be if there was someone else around...for about a minute.

Im in a long term relationship with a sexual, who I met before I identified with being asexual. I've only just told him about how I feel :?

I was torn between single and happy about it, and single but want a relationship.

Sometimes, my friends still keep secrets from me, still make me feel like they don't care. I wish I had another asexual person to get close too, and have some sort of relationship with.

Happily single for me.

It's not just about not wanting to feel pressured into having sex. As a single person, I can enjoy my own mental life, which is very active and satisfying. I study, I read, I follow self-improvement programs, I go on educational visits to places, I write music. All of which would be far more difficult to find time for if I was in a relationship.

I used to think I wanted to have a relationship, but things I pictured doing within the relationship were things like reading in the same room, my working on my computer while my companion sketched or read a magazine, etc. Then I realised I never really pictured speaking to this person and what I wanted was my life with a quiet person in the same room. What's the point of that?! :D

'I'm sorry, dear, I didn't start dating you so we could talk.'

Happily single for the past 5 or so years. I suppose the first year or so of that wasn't so happy, but since I got my head round things I've never even wanted to be in a relationship.

And I'm happier than I've ever been in my life.

Sad to see this "0" next to "dating an asexual person"... Do you think it's impossible? I have tried this, but it seems that the other person found this situation too strange, and wanted something else, even she can't feel herself so good in another way. :(

Well, I put LTR with an asexual, because I wouldn't say we were "dating". We don't go in for that sorta thing, really, but there's been a lot of talk about commitment.

And I know of another couple where both members are asexual (and members of this site) but they've not been around lately to vote...

I keep hoping that someone will come my way....someday. Sometimes I think a few people did come, but I was too busy to notice :(

being single has its advantages. Can't complain much.

Hey, I am a junior member....Yuppi :lol:
