Questioning my sexuality

For the longest time I’ve believed I was bisexual, also I’ve been a very openly sexual person. I’m still a virgin, I don’t know if that matters but lately I’ve been completely uninterested in anything related to sex and/or relationships. I keep on asking myself whether I could possibly be asexual, or if I’m just going through a phase. Please help lol.

There can be many reasons a person loses interest in sex - depression , stress, medical issues , medication. If its for a short period of time, its doesn't mean there is something necessarily wrong.

I think society puts too much pressure on sexual identity. Have your identity grounded in something deeper than sexual function. Those who put their entire lives into sexual proclivities are also, also consumed by it. There is a deep end you would be glad never to reach such as these individuals where it becomes reckless. Sex connects the spirit of an individual so it should also be an area of high respect. Call me old fashion but intimacy I believe is best served in a committed marriage.

I am sure you are well rounded and have mutual areas of respect with someone you can grow into firstly in a friendship. Let it all be organic, not conforming to our hypersexualised culture's expectations. Give yourself grace and enjoy less things to worry about. Blessings!

I personally identify as asexual because I don't understand what the whole fussy situation going on with having sex. I believe in society that sex is too much pressured on. That's why there are millions of teenagers having children these days, which is a shame as they have no Dad that's active in their children's lives. (not in every case) I have had sex, I don't enjoy it and that's because of my reasons and beliefs, not because the person was rubbish and ain't attracted to them. I found that I love more romantic than sexually. For some, it's a phase but some it's their lives.

Also, if you was sexaully active but have now lost it, this is quite common as at some point you might lose it. This will be temporary as it could be caused by depression, stress, other medical reasons and current medication. It doesn't mean anything is wrong but best to get advice from a professional just in case. In the short term, it's fine but will become a problem eventually.

I hope you find out what you truly are, feel free to do your research but make it to your understanding, not the understanding of what it says on the webpage. it's based on one person's experience, you're unique and different. Be proud of it!
