Is it normal to have zero sex drive when in love?

So I'm a pretty normal guy. I've been in a few relationships and have always had a pretty normal sex drive. However, recently I met this girl who I seriously am just so incredibly happy to be with. We've been on a few dates but we talk all the time and it's so different from my past relationships. However, I've noticed that since i've been with her i have zero sex drive (which isn't a huge problem because she is pretty religious and premarital sex won't happen). I don't mind not having sex with her because I just am so content with simply being around her. But I find it weird that I don't even feel like masturbating ever anymore. Is this normal?

    Yes it is normal it is because when you are in love you have higher levels of the neurotransmitter oxytocin (not to be confused with Oxycontin lol) which suppresses your sex drive.

    Normal too.I'm an atheist but my bf and I also have zero sex drive.It's because you might actually love her...Sub-consious factors.Read a book relative to it.Though it stills being pretty normal.

    Normal. This guy I was in love with.. I wouldn't wanna have sex with him just because I cared about him so much, almost like he was my own kid.. Not to sound creepy lmao. A lot of people don't understand what it's like to really be in love.

    Good thing you got going on there. Be grateful it's that way rather than you being uncomfortable for her religious beliefs.
