Basically, I've realized I do want to spend my life w/ a person (I'm romantically attracted to guys b/c I don't like boobies :P)...

But what are you supposed to do when you realize there is no way you can be in a relationship w/ someone without emotionally damaging them due to lack of desire for intimacy (which is a good thing, cause I'd rather not have a panic attack or worse while being intimate/guaranteed... :cry:) and having to put up w/ my sensory/social issues? AKA, I know I'd = constant stress for a potential partner
So I feel I must continue to do everything in my power to prevent my friendships from growing too much (in case other feelings develop). I feel like s**t all the time now...

Love is very complicated. Heck some days I feel I'd rather face a monster than ask a female I'm attracted to on a date. I tend to lock up when it comes to things like that.

Problem is I do feel attractions, just not physically. This is only an issue b/c most people like touching at the very least

I understand sometimes when I accidentally brush up to a female I get light headed, its overloading so I guess I'm inverse of you in a way.

Maybe you could try becoming friends first with females you like? That way at least you'll no if you "click" at all :).

I meant you should try to get to know a girl your interested in to see if you have anything in common and feel drawn to one another (if you can't tell for sure I'd say try to observe if she likes spending time with you or not).

We'd have to prearrange that. By the way your tone & pitch of voice is also very important (though I can't help there).

Sadly I tend to be a little bit monotone
