Okay, not to be a picky stick in the mud, but humans aren't asexual. If you choose to not have sex, you're celibate. Asexual organisms are organisms that reproduce by themselves, via binary fission, etc. Humans, in order to reproduce, need to join sperm & egg to form a zygote. Asexual refers to reproduction. If you don't desire/have sex, I think the right term is celibate.

Is there a term for not choosing to not desire/have sex/feel attraction to anything?

I figured being Celibate was a decision one made-- usually for Spiritual purposes.
Just using terms I was given to describe myself. Sorry for being stupid.

i think you got it right, Ms. McGee

from wikipedia:

"Asexuality (sometimes referred to as nonsexuality),[1][2][3] in its broadest sense, is the lack of sexual attraction to others[4][5][6] or the lack of interest in sex.[7][6] It may also be considered a lack of a sexual orientation.[8] One commonly cited study published in 2004 placed the prevalence of asexuality at 1%.[9][8]

Asexuality is distinct from abstention from sexual activity and from celibacy, which are behavioral and generally motivated by factors such as an individual's personal or religious beliefs;[10] sexual orientation, unlike sexual behavior, is believed to be "enduring".[11] Some asexuals do engage in sexual activity despite lacking a desire for sex or sexual attraction, due to a variety of reasons, such as a desire to please romantic partners.[6]"

^ Yeah, I always assumed by 'asexual' that you meant you weren't interested in sex. Celibate, to me, simply means that you choose not to do so. Kind of like when people say they are 'asocial.'
Maybe you are "anti-sexual'? :p

"Asexual Reproduction" refers to asexual reproduction

whereas, "Asexual, or Asexuality" refers to someone's sexual orientation

Oh okay, I didn't know there were two meanings to it. I guess being a biology/English major, I think in biology terms :/

Thanks for the other definition! Sorry Mcgee

I'm 43 and in the same situation... No, not asexual or whatever... I have a very healthy sexual drive, maybe a bit overactive sex drive... So the desire is there, but so is the desire for love and bonding that goes along with a relationship. I want the relationship and to be able to feel comfortable and in love first, then hopefully the intimacy will follow...

My honest advice is to do whatever you can to get it over with. I know sex shouldn't be looked at in that way but I think you've got to get that first time done with so you can get the mystery over with.

Considering you made this thread, this never having had sex is probably bothering you a bit, and that's totally understandable.

For me, I had a relationship but didn't have sex with her, so I still felt like I was missing something. After I finally had sex with the next girl, I finally felt like I knew what it felt like and was glad I got it over with. I think it's just the mystery that's the problem. It's something most people have done, so it's natural to want to experience it.

I am against the escort thing because the average escort has had 900 partners (yuck). I did online dating and I would recommend that. If you have friends? You could hit the bars. If you really got guts, you could hit the bars solo.

The main advice I have for you is to lower your standards. Play to the average or below average looking women. Those ones are the ones that are most likely to be available for you.

SM, Felgen and I will all tell you the same thing: You must date women to get confidence with dating women. The reason you see guys that are so confident with women is because they've been with women before. Another thing to remember is that you are probably going to have to make this happen, like for instance, you'll have to message multiple women online if you choose to travel that route. Or try to talk to multiple women at parties/bars if you choose that route.

That sound good but what about the women with low standrads? Is It o.k to just break her heart after you are done with her.

hi i know how you feel im 50 the only difference is i have had relationships and sex. the relationships didnt didnt turn out to be life long and i,m alone now for about the last 3 years. sex is overrated unless in a proper relationship. if you spend your life only wanting sex then you will always end up alone.
At my age i have found that i will tend to have much deeper conversations with women and open up more and women love men who open up to them . you must have alot of stories to tell. many people appear happy and content on the outside but underneath they just want someone to talk to. try not to focus on your age or that you havent had sex. and opportunities will come.

just some advice

I think as a man it's important to get over sex as quickly as possible. That allows you to observe a woman based on what sort of person she is, and to truly examine the elements that govern any potential compatibility. It also puts you in a better position to cut through any b/s she's giving you, as some women will give you a nightmare of a time while leaning on the fact that they hold all the sex cards.

Of course, we've all been infatuated/dying-for-some-bedroom-action at one point or another, and I think it's normal to give in to that sometimes. But there are lessons to be learned from it.

To Be honest I am 38 yrs old and have never had sex with anyone or a boyfriend. There is nothing wrong with how I look because I get noticed. I was sexually abused and raped as a teenager, but the real reason I have never had sex period is because I am 4 Ft 8 inches tall and I assume that my being short has a lot to do with it. When I was in my 20s I kept getting mistaken for a teenager. Even when I was in my early 30s I got mistaken for a teenager. Now I get mistaken for a 26 yr old women. I know it might be hard for some people to believe but you have to be a short person to actually understand what I'm going through. A lot of women wish they could be in their 20s and early 30s and have a teenage youthful look, but to be honest looking really young really get's you nowhere. Being short gets you nowhere either. My being sexually abused and raped as a child has nothing to do with me not having a relationship with a man or not having sex. It's just that men are naive and have a tendency to mistake short people for really young people. People also need to quite acting like short people or midgets are not normal people. They notice you as if there is something wrong with you being short or pint size. It also seems like people did not get the fact that short people were adults until they started seeing reality shows that had short and little people in it. Seriously, after those type of people started appearing on reality shows people started realizing I was a grown women. It does not make sense for a person to go through life being mistaken for a young person. If you went through what I went through you would have second thoughts about wanting to look youthful.

My advice.

1. If you do not look 98 pounds ( ficitonal ideal weight ) then go to the gym and get in shape. Lose the belly if any.

2. Learn to use make up for health benifits. I am talking about stuff you put on your body
including ( yourgut, Cucumbas, and things like that ).

3. Stop wearing pants and start wearing dresses or traditional things.

4. Do not be afraid to wink at men or even try making the first move. Try to understand men.

5. Your 50 years old. Seriously if you can pass as 30 or even younger then that please attempt to do so. A woman recently was arrested for pretending to be an 14 ( lied to an officer on the street; when an neighbor reported her as being an runaway ) and is she is 40+. I am not saying that is wrong. I am saying at least she attempted to give men what they wanted. In fact I have an woman boss; and she is like really upbeat about the situation of things. She is alive and happy with things. Not down or unhappy. She could pass as 19 maybe but I am not saying. Do not cut all of your hair off. My other boss did that. Getting your hair done is one thing but do not cut the hair off.

6. Take care of your eggs. Contraceptives from my understanding can prevent an egg drop. Not just make the area down their uninhabitable. So do your research. Some women take these things just health concerns like to protect from over bleeding and stuff as well as hormones imbalance. Do your research.

7. Respect yourself but remember your age group. I will say this. Your 51 do not tell anybody your age. Just show a picture to people. Let them be the judge of things. Their are tons of military men who need sex as well, and non-military men. These are men who needs the company. Some cases you have men who ARE YOUR AGE AND NEVER EVER HAVE ANY CHILDREN. A man at my work in the past goes on vacations where he spends all of his money for sex.

8. Somebody said orgies??? Yes they have granny clubs where they have sex with milk boys, and milk men, and pool boys ( whatever your nickname to male sex toy at club ). They have places like that where women goes in groups just to have sex with a bunch of men of different sorts. You got 80 year old granny doing it. A bunch of dogs in my opinion. Some of them are attractive.

9. My opinion. Get athletically fit. Make it with an young man and get pregnant. That is it. I am sorry if you do not like that idea. Your 50 and your a woman. If it was a man. Men can still go on even into their 90's. Women functions stops eventually. Get fit. Get some surgery ( if your not happy with your results ) and where nothing but dresses.
Dress up in an 1950's fashion or 1990s fashion. Again no pants. Keep traditional.
Nothing silly but seriously.

Also be kind to men. Try to be a little touchy with men. Let them know that you are safe to touch. Let them know that you looking for emotions. Try some trickery with words.

Their are 30 year old men looking for 50 year olds. Sadly I typed this. Vice versa. Bottom line if your not phyiscally fit their is no chance as an woman. Unless you and him get long and stuff. I know my Grandmother has her friend who never had kids. She is 70+ and had an body of almost an really really young person. Of course she is retired as well and invest in stocks. So think about it like that.

Do not be afraid to use money. Tons of men like women needs sponsors for their practice. Tons of women also needs companionship as well.
