Is it normal to sometimes wish i didn't have any sex drive at all?

i am a 21 year old male and I am very passionate about school work and getting out and experiencing the world, yet I find myself very distracted by sex. I try to seek it out a lot and spend a lot of time thinking about it. Sometimes it feels like sex Is all I want. Most of the time i am content with who I am and my sex drive, but sometimes I just wish I didn't have any desire for it so I could improve myself as a person a lot more. I have even considered at times to dump my amazing girlfriend of two years to have more time to read academic books on science and philosophy. Is it normal to feel this way sometimes?

Is It Normal?

  • I am like that. I prefer personal growth. You can never really be in a relationship and appreciate it until you learn to grow as best you can. And you don't really reach a stage of good understanding until your 20s.
    I think about sex but it doesn't consume me. I am rather asexual, actually. I think about it, I masturbate, I am attracted to others, but the actual act of sex grosses me out. I'd rather just kiss and cuddle. Every time I've had sex, I had to leave afterwards and I just sat down and wanted to die. Hence, the reason, I've only done it a few times in life.
    As a man, others may think it is bizarre. To be honest, I fcuking LOVE it. I love not being consumed by sex. Helps me think clearly when I like someone. Helps me hold off. Helps me see red flags, which others often cannot see because they are thinking with their penis. I'm pretty sure my siblings are the same way. Needless to say, we don't end up in fcuked up situations like many other people in life (in regards to relationships)

  • i think its normal wanting to make your life better for yourself. but you should really be careful what you wish for, because once you are all done with learning and doing things in your life, when you finally decide you would like a relationship and when you have sex, you might not be able to perform. or else take you longer.

    i was in a relationship with a woman once who claimed she was a nymphomaniac and i don't have a high sex drive. so giving her what she wanted, which was sex, sex, sex. i had to do other things because i'm not that very sexually active. imagine having to tell someone you're in a relationship with, that its not them. and they feel like it is. it feels bad. so anytime a woman is interested in me, if i find out she likes a lot of sex, or makes it too easy, i don't want the relationship.
