Is it normal to not have sexual feelings? (legit question)

I'm in my early twenties and a virgin. When I think about sex, I want it, partially just to get it over with, and partially just to know if I'm even capable of being sexual.

I'm not ugly... I've had plenty of offers, been in relationships, even narrowly escaped it a couple times? It's not that I'm scared, but I think I am scared of having sex with someone when I don't feel horny. I *want* to feel horny.

I've tried masturbating. The whole lube/wetness thing is kind of even 'gross' to me because I'm not horny.

When I'm not doing any of that though, sometimes I think about it and do want it. I dream about someone I never met and I feel so horny for that person that doesn't exist.

A few serious answers would be appreciated.

Is It Normal?

  • I have only ever had sex with one person, my current partner. At first I felt like you, I didn't want it and to begin with didn't even do alot for me.
    To me, sex is more about "making love"- if that's not corny. It's a feeling of closeness and intimacy with the person you love.
    Maybe you have never loved anyone enough to want this?
    Masturbating grosses me out too so don't worry about that...
    I think when you meet the right person, don't make it priority, don't stress and don't make it something that has to happen, go with your feelings and in time let it happen...
    Not sure if this is any help, sorry!

  • You are growing, but do not be in a hurry to have sex, you may be having a self esteem issue.
    If you are to thine own self be true
    You must love yourself by doing what develops your soul, you need to grow more spiritually and i am not talking about religion, i do not encourage religion.
    Go on a mission and help the destitutes, the world is in crisis and need people like you
    I do not know how old you are but join a good cause where you can learn how to make friends and find purpose, look within you and find sometbing tbat you love doing, wben you find purpose the drive and the passion is even better than love making.
    If you are a virgin you want to give your virginity to someone that appreciates you. You are God's princess and he loves you, really be put all tbose feelings there, if you really love yourself you will wait until you find someone that you love and all that horny feelings will come out, just talkkng, laughing and looking into this person's eyes will make you horny, so my dear you think you are hurting now, wait until you are heartbroken, preserve your body precious child.
    Its called self preservation.
    Do not keep thinking about it, read a self belp book by deepak chopra and many books on the indigo or chapters self help section.

    Like you said you are beautiful, stay pretty. Go out and break some bearts till you find a man that treats you good

    Love you like a sister

  • You may be an asexual, which is fine. There is some stuff online if you want to find like minded people. It's not average, but fine. I have met and like asexuals. What's not to like?

    • Its possible that you're asexual. I'm asexual myself, and I know the definition of asexuality is that you have no sexual attraction or desire. But...you seem to WANT to have sex, but only when you're horny. Try different things, there must be something that can turn you on (you didn't mention your gender so I cant go into specifics.)

  • It's perfectly normal and it's called asexuality. Many others are out there like you.

  • I often wouldn't really be horny when my boyfriend and I would start having sex, but once we got into it it was good. Just don't over-think it.

    • true enough.. or getting more turned on by the memories of what happened.

  • Yes. Asexuality is completely normal. For people that are asexual but want a sex life, there are medications.

  • lol this is just too bizarre for me.

    why don't you get horny when you masturbate? wouldn't you naturally think of hot things when you masturbate?

    on that note, there's nothing wrong with being in your early twenties and a virgin. so am i. but do try to make yourself horny once in a while!

    also, i don't think there's anything wrong with having sex with someone and not being horny. it can happen. you need to be comfortable and trust the person. and love the person, of course!

  • I'm kind of like that.
    I don't physical attraction to anybody, but I am curious about sex; however I'm terrified by it.
    I think the Whole thing about sex is weird and complicated and every person is different in that regard
