Are you Asexual?

I am.
All alone is the best way to be.
Pure and simple question. Are you asexual?

(Probably posted this in the wrong area. I usually do that and let the moderators work it out)

I have a libido and I take care of business when needed. I recognized aesthetically attractive people, but I've never looked at somebody and felt sexually attracted nor have I ever felt compelled to get it on with somebody beyond my fantasies. Kind of in a grey area, I guess?

I would call myself "asexual" because I never really have (or had) a desire to be with another person. I am now in my forties now and I do think about having kids to pass on to the next generation. I need my personal space or I will go crazy and trying to share that space with another person is not gonna work out for me.

Eeyup, though I'm not aromantic. I feel loneliness, and I'm not sex-negative. I just don't feel attraction to anyone on sexual terms.

Nope. I've had more than enough sex to make up for everyone else in this thread not having any. Just doing my part to maintain balance in the universe!

Unfortunately, I have libido, however, I consider myself to be rationally asexual as I reject my biology that forces me to reproduce.

I'm on that spectrum. I do have a sex drive but I've always handed it myself & didn't desire to have sex except now that I'm in a relationship. I like sex OK but I'm fine without & I don't get sexual attraction either.

Nope... I enjoy the Chicas Bonitas!

I'm not. I'm bisexual. And I very much cannot live with others. I've tried, but I always end up annoying them. I'm pretty sure this will cause me to end up alone, living in the mountains or on a farm, with a bunch of dogs. The townsfolk with throw rocks when I come to buy groceries.

Pure and simple answer: No.

Yes, I am. I don't want sex at all, but I'm not opposed to being in a relationship. I could see myself getting married if I found someone I could really get along with (as long as sex wasn't a part of the relationship).

Yep, another ace here. Borderline aro too.

I thought I was, but nope -- being in a society that pretty much puts sex as everything else other than being in a committed relationship, makes you feel like you are.

I KNEW you would reply LupaLuna.

I did actually stumble into a relationship at the age of 24. My first and I have a 20 year old daughter

but leaving a legacy doesn't matter to me. I've unleashed her onto the world. Let it Be.

Time to go!

I am not asexual. However, because my sister is asexual, I have to pretend to be asexual just to avoid talking about anything sexual in nature.

That's very considerate of you to do that but I've got to ask, what do you find so enjoyable about putting your naked body so close to another human's naked body? Sweat, etc. I find it extremely gross and can't even fathom why someone would like that.

For many years of my relationship, I slept on the lounge downstairs (with the cats ) because of this and it eventually was the ruination of our relationship.

I still grieve about not being with her but I guess I never really was with her!
