I know intellectually when someone is attractive, but I can't say with honesty that I'm sexually or emotionally attracted to them.

This is exactly how I feel, the only difference is I'm a male.

I can tell vaguely when someone has certain traits that would be considered attractive by society, because we're bombarded with it every day,
but I see no objectivity in it- it's all seemingly-random preferences, to me.

Sex is overrated.

I wouldn't describe myself as asexual, more like unlucky and lovesick.

Everytime I fall in love, she either lives in a different country, already has a boyfriend or simply not interested (or not attracted) in me for one reason or another.

Have you considered the fact that you fall for people that you can't have? I think there's a name for that condition... I can't remember now.. I was like that in my teenage until I went to a physcriatrist and she helped me deal with it. She said since my dad was not around me a lot I kept looking for male companionship in unavailable people.... I sorta dealt with it by spending a lot of time with my dad... So maybe you can help yourself by spending time with a parent or someone like a parent..

Interesting theory. I often fall for what I can't have yet I get unconditional love from both my parents, so that can't explain the problem in my case. Any ideas?

Well, I am asexual now. I could care less about sex. It makes me very very uncomfortable. Is that an Aspie trait? Please? What is wrong with a good intellectual conversation?

Indifference to sex =/= asexuality
Sexual aversion =/= asexuality
Aspergers =/= asexuality
Intellectual conversations =/= asexuality
