    Maybe? Only you can identify what you identify with

    Is the issue that the one man you are sexually attracted to isn't your mate?

    Sexuality is fluid for many people, desire for sex ebbs and flows - attraction less about genitals and more about appearance and personality. You're fine. Enjoy life.

    Pretty much this. All mammals tend to have at least some attraction to both sexes and humans are no different.

    Ok it's interesting. Maybe I should add that I typically don't really get along with women either and my best friends have always been guys.

    My friends have always been girls, I don't get along with men on a "friend" level, its always romantic

    Also Idk if I could be friends with a guy without getting infatuated and falling in love

    I would just stick with dudes, OP. Women are so high maintenance and a few days a month it's a no go for sex.

    Nah, irrelevant. Unless you aren't friends with women because it always turns romantic.

    I have never had any issue making friends with men or women. I'm bi.

    I've had no problem being friends with guys because it's extremely rare for me to actually have a crush on someone. But yeah it unfortunately usually doesn't last forever, so I suppose there's indeed often some romantic stuff getting in the way (either on their side or a jealous girlfriend or something.. I don't really know, but they're typically the ones who drift away).

    Not sure why I'm not that easily friend with women. I guess it's because I'm not very much a 'fashion/make up' person and more into the geeky stuff and I just haven't met many who can relate to that.

    You might feel like you fall into one of these categories:

    Pansexual = You can be sexually attracted to any gender, whether or not it is within the male/female binary
    Demisexual = You are only sexually attracted to certain people with whom you have an emotional connection

    Is there something for 'almost never sexually attracted by anyone'? lol.

    Asexual? Wait that can't be right. I thought that's when creatures are able to reproduce by themselves.

    Yup. Just looked it up as well. I think you're right, Megan.

    It's possible or it might be a situation, in which you wish you had a feature; that they have? So you aren't sexually attracted, to them themselves but you'd wish that you had their butt, etc., to enhance your own sexuality. I don't know, if that itself; has a name though. For example there're women that desire to have a butt, like Kim Kardashian; yet have no desire to have sex with her!

    What does the year have to do with it??? Are you saying that with each year humans get smarter? That folks from 50 or 500 years ago were idiots?


    I would say the year has a lot to do with it. This was just 50-60 years ago...

    Yes, that's what demi-sexual is. Demi-sexual is not completely asexual. It's a person with a low sex drive that doesn't feel physically attracted to people based on physicality alone. They only sometimes want sex with a person they have formed an emotional connection with.

    I think it might be worth a try to date women and see how it goes.

    I'm bisexual. But, I have a high sex drive.

    Is it wrong to be attracted to a Green Chili Burrito?


    .....I'm asking for a friend.

    This is it..

    I wouldn't overthink it...people are attracted to all sorts of things, sometimes they make sense, sometimes they don't. If an opportunity arises that you can dabble with someone, I say go for it...you'll know pretty fast whether it's really something you're into or not. On the opposite side of the coin, there's nothing wrong with being attracted to anyone and doing nothing about it. xo

    depends...does it make you burn inside with a passion you can't get anywhere else? If so then it's ok.

    Dunno, I'll ask my friend.

    okay... he said Yes



    and Thank You
