Re: I don't feel sexual attraction and have no interest in sex - May 29th 2026, 06:37 PM

Hey,

I'm sorry you're going through this!

I first want to say there's nothing wrong with you. If you want, you can go to the doctor to get your hormone levels checked, but this is optional and there's not necessarily anything wrong with you medically. What you're describing to me sounds like you're asexual. Asexual people lack sexual attraction, but they can still be romantically attracted to someone because romantic and sexual attraction aren't always the same. You definitely can be in a relationship without experiencing sexual attraction. Some asexuals have sex sometimes and others don't. I'm in a few asexual groups on Facebook and there are people who are in relationships even being asexual, so there definitely is hope for you too. It's all about communication in any relationship. Be up front about your boundaries and what you are or aren't comfortable with when that discussion comes up.

You don't have to assign a label to yourself, though. It's whatever you're the most comfortable with, because you know yourself best.

I hope this helps!
Dez
