Is it normal to have a low sex drive and be aroused when sleepy/tired?

I'm a 25 year old guy and feel like my sex drive is significantly lower than my friends. I like sex but it's not something that's on my mind all the time. I never seem to get aroused when on dates with women until things start to get really physical. So a lot of times, I don't even actively pursue sex because I'm not aroused even if the girl is really hot. Generally, I tend to get aroused when I'm really tired and just about to fall asleep which I find odd and annoying. Any ideas on how to increase sex drive?

    I have the same exact problem, so it must be normal. Going a bit more graphic than you, and thinking you probably have the same issue, I can't get an erection without some type of direct stimulation.

    One thing that may be different between you and I, though, is that I take some antipsychotic medications which are known to lower one's sex drive.

    It is kind of nice to be this way in a sense, because we don't have our genitals dictating our action and driving us crazy when we aren't getting enough sex.

    For males in their sexual prime (18-30) their hormone levels actually peak late at night and early in the morning. Your body's biolociical clock might be associating it with your sleep cycle instead the time of day.

    I recently heard on the news that WATERMELON is good for increasing sex drive.I'm not sure if it works or not,but I love watermelon.

    Are you on any medications? (antidepressants are notorious for lowering people's sex drives) Smoke cigarettes? Some things can lower your sex drive.
    If it seems really bothersome you could have your testosterone levels tested.

    If you get aroused when you are in a relaxed state, that means that most of the time you are simply not relaxed....ie stressed or worried.

    People respond to stress in various ways. Some get frazzled while others get intently focused. In your case, you appear to not be distracted even by hot women sitting near you. That my friend isn't quite normal. But then again, I'm not sure it's worth WORRYING about.

    It is completely normal. my fiance has the same condition even though he is a bit older. He often gets aroused after an hour of sleep an wakes me up so to speak. There's a great advantage to not keeping your brain between your legs.
