Is it normal to lose your libido overnight?

I'm a 20 years old guy. Few days ago, I woke up with a strange feeling that I've never felt before. Basically, I lost my sexual desire. I don't feel like having sex, masturbating, or anything.

I haven't lost my 'ability,' it's just that I don't want to do it. Looking at women in bikinis in non-sexual poses doesn't turn me on like it used to do, nor does having sexual thoughts. In fact, I don't even have such thoughts anymore. The only thing that did arouse me was looking at porn, but even then, I didn't want to continue. It feels like such a waste of time, I have so much to do, and many better uses for my time!

What is wrong with me? Am I maturing? Did I suddenly grow up to be a boring busy mature man? Is it time for me to stop fooling around, go looking for the girl of my dreams and find true love, and settle down?

Really, is this normal? Is it just a stage of life that everyone goes through while growing up, the step between a teenager and a grown-up?

    That's good for you! If girls see u don't get turned on by them and most guys are attracted to them sexually, then that will make them curious about you. It's really just a good way to find your soul mate instead of waiting around, hooking up with anything with boobs and a vagina. Just saying! :)

    Nah, don't worry about it. A dry spell isn't something to cry over.

    Meh, don't worry. It'll probably come back. I'll go through short little phases where I'm just in the mood for ANYTHING, sex included. I'm sure your hormones are just acting up lol. :)

    Life isn't all about sex. You're normal; but most of these sluts will tell you otherwise.

    Yea I agree with the depression and anxiety. It could be closely related to chemicals in your brain which have you focused on things other than procreation. Or maybe subconsciously you sense that it is not a good time for procreation, so your body has temporarily suspended your drive.

    This can happen from things such as anxiety, or depression. I had anxiety for a few weeks and lost all sexual drive.
