    This is not a problem for the vast majority of people but I was always told that women don’t want to have sex but turns out that they do and this is bit of an issue as I don’t particularly enjoy that myself.

    Another issue is that I like being alone but not all day every day but being in a relationship means I have to leave the house to be alone.

      It’s interesting because one of the reasons I’ve never dated is because 99% of people on the planet want and need sex in a relationship. I don’t want sex so I figured why bother attempting to date. Well I found out about asexual dating sites and have been casually on them for a while now, but it’s tricky because no one has been close enough to meet. And I don’t know what the hell people do in LDRs if it doesn’t revolve around sex. Wishing you the best.

        Thanks! I actually am in a relationship right now and it’s an open one so she doesn’t need to completely live without sex but I still can’t help but to feel like I’m not doing my part. It’s just one of those things that don’t really have a perfect solution to it. Not having sex doesn’t feel right but forcing myself into it to please her isn’t right either especially knowing that it’s what I’ve done in my previous relationships which only has made me resent sex even more.
