Is it normal i only get aroused once every 6 months or so?

One moment, for usually 1-2 hours I'll just feel...aroused. It's usually just as I'm getting ready to go to bed, my thoughts go to "la la" land. I've considered myself asexual for years. I don't experience any sexual attraction and it doesn't effect my body.

But still, every few months (usually the day before my period) I'll think certain thoughts that provoke some sliver of a sex drive in me. Otherwise, I have no sex drive, ever.

Just curious, is this normal? When i first found out I was asexual I was sad and thought there was something wrong with me, but I eventually became cool with it. Still, I feel like I'm - or my body, rather, since it ain't really in my control - just betrays that.

I've never masturbated or had sex, blah blah blah.

    It sounds like a low sex drive. During your period, your hormones can get a little crazy and it seems that they are increasing your sex drive.

    I can see where you are coming from. While I don't consider myself to be asexual, it seems rather difficult for me to find myself attracted to someone much less, aroused. If any thing, the most arousal I have ever gotten has probably been triggered by my fetishes. I don't know if this is because I am just really picky or if I have a low sex drive.

    Same. I'm guessing just low sex drive, everyone's different and all that.
