Hello, SWF. I was hoping just in need of a good vent, so I thought I'd blog it and spare my few understanding friends the time needed to listen to me *****. I will try to keep this as clean as possible, seeing as it has to do with sexually related teenage angst, but feel free to close it if you feel it is getting out of control, mods.

So anyway, it all started with the onset of puberty. Like all teenage boys, the horomones started up and I started to get certain urges. I have always had rather romantic ideals about sex, so I wanted to make sure I saved losing my virginity to someone special. So in my own mind, I kind of... the best way to put it is, I demonized girls inside my mind, so that I could wait for the right girl and filter out all the skanks. I went from being a humorous and charming guy around girls to being quiet and awkward, which counteracted the whole purpose of waiting for a special girl.

If I never got to know any girls, how could I meet the special one? I had plenty of great girls try to get to know me over the years, but my wierd complex never let it go anywhere. So after realizing this, I had a crazy change of heart compelled by confusion, peer pressure (all my friends had started bragging about their personal sexual experiences)and primal male instinct, in which I decided to go out, get drunk with some rather permiscuos girls and lose my virginity. And so started a bizarre chain of events that changed my entire outlook on life. 2 girls out of this particular crowd stand out in the context of this story. We will call them H and B, respectively. H is a very pretty and funny girl who I had my eyes on. B is H's best friend, who is notorious in my area for having a fling with a man 10 years older than her.

She also once told me she thought I was the most handsome guy in the school (Uh oh, right?). So I'm at a house with a couple of my friends and these girls when my friends dad kicks most of us out. I sieze the oppurtunity to invite the girls over to my house, since they have knowhere else to go.We start walking and I really put the moves onto H. And the moves all fall flat. She had a crush on some drop-out hockey player at the time, and she kept bringing him up. Meanwhile, B was working her moves on me. Typical. So we're talking, and they ask about how many girls I've slept with. I say 0. So they kinda let it be at the moment and dare me to chug the rest of my 2 6. I do... We get back to my house and B tells me she is going to take my virginity. And do you know what happens?

We make-out for 20 minutes in the nude, and even though I have so much booze in my body, I am not attracted to this girl at all. My drunk *** realizes my old ideals to wait for the right girl, and I end it right there. We put our clothes on and they leave, while me and my friend go on a spirit walk. It was after this experience that everything changed. A weekend after this, H realizes she really likes me. She is hammered, and tells me to come over, there is nobody at her house. I go over, she starts kissing me, and I feel.... nothing.

This girl, the one I really liked, this girl who attracted me so much, now doesn't even get a flutter out of me. Its as if some strange defense mechanism kicked in after I almost lost my virginity to the wrong person. The ultimate defense mechanism in fact, because why would you lose your virginity when you are no longer attracted to anything. I exxagerate not. I considered for a while that I may be gay, but that just isn't the case. I've had what would have been called sensual interactions with girls after H, and none of it gets a reaction out of me.

I have since coined the term "Neutrosexual" to describe myself. I cannot find attraction in any person, I honestly don't even.... have onesomes anymore ;P. Has anyone on these boards ever heard of anything like this, or had a similiar experience? I feel totally alone as it is. I was just hoping somebody on the boards could give me some advice to get out out of this slump, or tell me what my disorder is or something. XD Its not even that I am so desperate to be involved with girls again, I just feel like I'm a freak or something... Discuss.

Right here, not quite now
If you're still 13-17 years, your sexuality isn't fully developed yet. I felt the way you do when I was 15-16, I wasn't attracted to anyone, and then I started having crushes on three different girls.

You might also be the one who looks for personalities and not looks (that's me again). If you meet new people, see what happens.

umm, that is odd. there must be something wrong with your brain (not being mean), because humans are hard wired to have sex.

You should change the term of your sexuality, make it something like nonsexual. neutrosexual means bisexual, lol

I think he means neutrosexual as in "neutral sexual".

"Neutrosexual" is no word.
If you're not attracted to anyone, then the term is "asexual".

This topic reminds me that I need to try and get a girlfriend.

Weirdly enough, I'm pretty much the exact opposite of you Airwalkerr. I find almost anyone between the ages of 20 and 30 attractive, except for my siblings (obviously). And often when I look at people on the street, I think 'God, imagine how great it would be to have sex with that girl while having sex with that guy'. (Yeah, I know...)

@Airwalkerr: How old are you, and how much do you drink? Ever do any other sort of drugs? Prolonged alcohol abuse adversely affects some people's sex drives. The same with drugs.

If not that, it could be due to your age. Things like social anxiety and such can be amplified during the teenage years and interfere with sexuality. In that case, you'll just have to wait it out.

Lastly, it could be a hormone deficiency, but you won't know unless the previous two things are ruled out and your lack of a sex drive persists into your adult life.

This sounds plausible..you're mental state may be in shock, give it a month at least for the effects to wear off and get back in the game. If it doesn't or hasn't, try porn? You're on your own...

Occasionally press the Enter key while typing or you'll end up with a wall of text.
I laughed really, really hard at that. Too good.

And I've been beat to it, but you're probably asexual at the moment. Could just be a phase, but who knows. Not really sure what to say. I, too, share your romantic ideals, however. ;D

This is quite odd. The reasons could be the various ones everybody has named so far.
I think that it requires time. If it doesn't change go for a therapy lol.

Well...I've been horny starting at like...8...So I can't help you much. If the girl is at least kinda attractive, I always enjoy it....

But...I do have a friend that we all pretty much thinks he's gay...He swears he just isn't ready for anything yet...He's a really smart guy, so I trust him. Same case maybe?

@ El Nino, I am 17, I quit drinking a couple weeks after the incident, which was about 5 months ago. ;) And the only girl I have loved since is Mary Jane. But changing the topic, I had no idea people existed without sexualities, for any manner of reasons, so I made a name for it. Sorry if it leads you on that I'm bi, I'm not ...anything. ;-) I think Frown may have hit the nail on the head, however. Its probably just a phase, after I get out of high school into the big world, everythings probably gonna change.

So many dots, hurts my eyes. :freak:
Being smart =/= denying his homosexuality. He might be gay and in denial, that doesn't mean that he's actually stupid.

I'm pretty sure it's a different case. As Airwalkerr says he didn't even get turned on by that girl. Which is some serious stuff, not just all about morals. I'm 16, turning 17 and claim not to be ready to have sex despite the fact that I'm averagely horny (well, the casual guy's level let's say). But that's all morals and convictions.

So is "pitching the tent" twice a day normal? just throwing it out there. It's an honest question.

to stay on topic:

I can understand that. I have a close friend that's a girl but I don't find her attractive in a sexual way. Perhaps you need to find someone your compatible with in a friendship first?

I think it is normal. Well, it doesn't sound like you're overdoing it or being obsessed. It should be.

Go read the Ladder Theory. :laugh:
I've got a friend that I think that she's EXTREMELY cute.
But I would never do anything sexual with her even if she were to pay me. Somehow, I find her unattractive sexually. It's just plain normal, I don't think it's the same as AirWalkerr.

*Facepalms*
....

Okay in all serious, lol. You don't even know why?
Seriously, if you're hesitating... It's because you do have a reason deep inside you.
Is it because you're insecure, not ready to be in a relationship? Ask yourself the right questions, the real reason will come out soon.

Oh and that's a thread hijacking, in a way.

AirWalkerr, I hope you'll get out of this soon.
If not, go for a professional!

Well, after some of your guys advice, I decided I would go for a whole new breed of girl. Because if my disorder, or whatever you want to call it, is just virginity based, maybe I need to be in a good unsexual relationship. So I told off H, who just broke up with her 23 year old boyfriend and wanted a rebound, and asked a really cool AND pretty girl to go to a concert with me. I think I might just need to get to know a girl personality wise, instead of going off of looks alone. Thanks yall for the advice, I'll keep ya posted after the concert 2 days from now. Regardless of what happens though, can't stop living. Even if I never am attracted to anything again (bleeeeeak) at least my friends are wicked and I'm almost done high school...

Ok I read this completely and came up with some really good ideas.
This post was going to be full of insightful ideas about philosphy and delving deep into the human psyche.

I was going to finish it all off with a well summed up conclusion that not only gave a solution also consoled you.

Unfortunately en route to making this awesome post I ran headfirst into Frown's pic. I then realised that the thread ended right there.

hey dude! just joined! so i was just wondering the same thing, whether i'm gay or not, so what good is the internet for, so i searched google and the first thing i found was your post.
so i've been having the same exprience, thinking if i'm gay or something. it's the same case as yours, i'm really not attracted by anyone, both romantically or sexually, so i came up with the same word 'neutosexual' to describe myself. the main reason for this is bcuz i don't wanna get married, EVER! i know that i'm not gay, although i can't find the reason for this problem...my friends and family say that i'm gay just bcuz of the reason that i'm not attracted by anyone, so if you feel bad about it or anything, don't worry you're not alone or a freak...and people please don't make fun of me

I actually think it's kinda cool that you found this through Google. It nullifies the massive bump I say.

Anyway my advice would be watch some porn and see if it does anything for you. Honestly, I'd say try that.

And I wonder how Airwalkers story progressed.

I could have been sensational.

It's never too late, Teran. Give it a go and see what happens.

I recall someone I went to college with claimed they were asexual and I didn't believe them. It just seemed so improbable that no one male or female or animal or vegetable or mineral turned them on.

But... he stuck to his guns, however unloaded they were. :awesome:

and lol@the suggestion to watch porn.

it guess it is kinda sad that some would assume that because a male is not sexually interested in a female that he MUST be gay. some people just take longer to develop in that area, but I think no one can go their entire lives not feeling some fancy of desire, even if it isn't "normal" desire. at least not without something being wrong with them, medically speaking.

Another stupid name for someone wanting to be original with their sexuality. This is almost as dumb as all Bisexuals calling themselves Pansexual now to sound different. Neutrosexual as you call it, is basically Asexual (Not being attracted to people in general and no desires for sex).

Maybe he eventually got laid and interested in sex.

If he didn't then he's probably going to go crazy as 98% of everything ever has something to do with sex.

I am and I will now make a comment on this thread. It had better be the best one I can think of.


Uhm, that's like, a really... COOL story, there bro I guess!

OP was in love with the idea of someone, not the person herself.

They do? There's a real difference between being attracted to both men and women (bi) and being attracted to all "genders" (M, F, MTF, FTM, Neuter, Hermaphrodite). If that's the case then Bi's have become even dumber than was originally the case!
