Is it normal to have no desire for kissing or sex?

30% Normal
11 Comments

I literally have no desire for kissing or sex or basically anything past a hug. The idea of it is disgusting and extremely unappealing to me. I don't care about germs or anything, but I literally can't even imagine what could possess someone to want to kiss another person. Like, "Wow, I really like you. I should put my mouth on your mouth." That's so freaking weird to me. Hugging and holding hands, however, doesn't bother me at all. I've always felt like this. It's like my opinion on sexual relationships hasn't changed since I was a child. Maybe I'm asexual?

But anyway, I avoid relationships and dating at all costs to avoid having to kiss or go even further with someone. It's really holding me back and nobody seems to understand. Is this normal?

    I'm like that too... when I think a guy is attractive all i want to do is hug him and be like his friend lol. I try to imagine even just a kiss with them but it is so gross to me and sex even more so. I avoid relationship too because I'm afraid what it'll lead to

    I get where you're coming from. I sort of see sex as something that's ugly, yet evolution makes me crave this act. I like women and they're pretty, sex just seems like it sort of ruins there beauty though.

    This is not normal under any circumstance.

    People tend to forget we are mammals, based on genetics and chemicals, it is the normal genetic code to reproduce.

    You are an anomoly. Not that's it's a big deal, but it's not normal.

    There are very non invasive methods and drugs that can help with this if you truly 'want' to.

    I think this is pretty normal in all honesty. Most human mouths are pretty disgusting and germ ridden.

    And as for sex, putting those parts of the body together is kinda gross as well, I mean we use them to evacuate waste from our body.

    That is kind of unusual, but understandable on some level.

    This seems highly uncommon to me, a half-slut who masturabates and had bestiality sex with her husky.

    I think that you are likely still young (Not saying your like 12 no worries)And have yet to experience the true beauty of it. It's not meant to be a gross act, alot of people really protray it that way though. It's all part a very close and loving feeling, if you find the right person you might experience this one day :)

    This is pretty messed up, actually. No sex??? I masturbate on a daily basis and get laid at least 3 times a week. That's normal for men and probably for women too, but they don't want to appear whorish.

    It's not common but it's normal, I'm the same and I've got a relationship of 4 years with my girlfriend and we're still very happy with each other.

    I see patterns of some traumatic childhood event or excessive insecurity. I mean... it's human to want to reproduce and "God" if he exists, made it feel really good so people go through with it. To not have any desires at all is... atypical.

    Also, it could be a medical issue.
