I am so lost -
November 1st 2011, 04:53 AM
I am lost. i don't know if I'm a lesbian, bi, or straight. I have always just said that I am straight because that what I have assumed. I have never been in a relationship, (and at 18, and where all of my friends have had at least 5 intimate relationships {and multiple sex buddies} each) I have always been kinda discouraged.
recently I have been reflecting, and realized that I have never been physically attracted to somebody before. while my friends would have posters of celebrity crushes, I had bare walls wondering why i wasn't drooling over a younger Daniel Radcliffe or Backstreet Boy's. I have had my crushes before, all with guys...but I felt the same way with them as I felt with my close female friends, so I don't know if i just saw them as friends or if I have had crushes with my female friends all along...I do imagine what relationships would be like with them sometimes, and I"m not freaked out or anything, but it bothers me that I don't know. Is there a sexual label for not attracted to anyone?, because that's how I feel. |

Does it really matter in the end? Just experiment with both.
There are many ways to describe ones sexual orientations, check the sticky notes in this section. |

Yes! I think the term that you're looking for is "asexual." You can check out our dictionary here for a list of other terms that go along with the LGBT community. According to this, "asexual" refers to:

I'd encourage you to go with the flow and see what happens as time goes on. Only you can truly know how you feel and what label suits you best. Check out the dictionary and see if there are any others that you feel might describe you! Go at your own pace and remember: The fact that your friends have all been in relationships doesn't mean you have to rush into one.Take care!

I can relate to you. I've felt like that before. I probably lean more on the asexual side than straight, even though I'm happily taken. PM me if you'd like and we could talk about this more.
Take care.

haha, youve pretty much described me(even the part about not dating anyone). Personally, i recognize myself as biromantic asexual. (Id like to date both genders even though im not physically attracted to them) However, everyone is different. I thought about all the other sexual orientations, lesbian, gay, bi, trans... none of them seemed to fit me. Then i looked in the TH dictionary and saw "asexual" and realized it described me perfectly. Basically, youre attracted to their personality, not their gender or looks as much as others.
"Once in a while we have to do something that scares us. Whoever says that what I want to do /doesn't/ scare me to death, is wrong. It scares me so much more than that."
If you have any questions about ghosts, spirits, Wicca, earth angels or if you just want to talk, PM me. I can help. ![]() |
