Er... hi there.

I'm demi, sex-indifferent, and in a weird position because I have a moderately high libido.

I'm also a hopeless romantic and love reading about it and watching it, and sometimes I think I like the idea of it but whenever I try to actually get with anybody, my min says "you really shouldn't," and I listen to it.

It's a confusing experience being me.

Yeah sounds like it could be. Welcome.

Hello and welcome!

I'm also kind of a romantic (I used to be more of one when I was younger), but I more just enjoy romance's effect on other people rather than actively wishing to participate in a romance. The idea of me being romantically involved with someone doesn't appeal to me.

Trust you? The only person I can trust is myself.

Yeah I think there is a specific word for that, if you cared to find it.

So am I. I said that a few pages ago, but we have new people, so yeah

Yeah I also said it a few pages ago. But I'm in the habit of reintroducing, probably because I'm used to the LGBT thread (which includes more than the acronym now but whatever) which is several thousand pages long, so it's more necessary.

Pretty sure I mentioned my orientation earlier in this thread, too, but I was just saying it again for the new person.

I think it means you like watching or fantasizing about other people doing sexual things, but you would never want to do those things or imagine yourself in those situations. Not sure though.

Yeah technically I'm that sexually not heterosexual I guess, or is it heterosexual because they tend to be guys I focus on?

I swear I will get surgery to prevent any sperm from getting into my penis or affecting me, even getting rid of it entirely if I can. I'd like to get rid of all the sexual/romantic parts and all the parts of my biology I hate, but I can't. Biology can be bitch at times.

Biology sucks. When I'm finally on T, I'll probably end up getting a libido I don't know what to do with, and I'm not looking forward to that (but it will be worth it, because beard).

Hiiiiiiii.

I'm impressed that this thread exists. If you want my full label, it's "heteroromantic demisexual." I kinda get a kick out of people asking what I am, because then I just give them that and tell them to Google it.

I came out to most of my family and friends, but as asexual, not demisexual, because whenever I tried to explain what demisexuality is, I always got "Oh, you're celibate/waiting for the right person! How wonderful!"

Not exactly....

Biology is annoying to me too, but I have the opposite problem. I kinda want to be in a sexual relationship just once, because I'm curious what it's like. It's basically research. I'm a writer, and most of my characters are actually not ace or aro (although a comparatively high number are).

So I guess that means you aren't aromantic than. I suppose that's probably good for you to know, hope you get a new friend or girlfriend (I think you mentioned in the other thread she was a girl).

Yeah have fun with it? I don't actually know what to wish people with crushes, fun is right, right? Happiness? Maybe togetherness but not pushing it if she doesn't like you back.
