I don't know how I feel about ever getting Intimate with Anyone because

I don’t want to end up looking after them in old age for example. If they fall ill.

I just want to have that lack of dependance from other people. In that sense.

I think I want to be celibate. And I’m not sure about Romance though but that may be a slippery slope to sex so I guess not.

Although I think I like physical closeneness and touch things like that.

What About you guys?

Yes, I’m bored, haha

And I think I’m sexually dysfunctional anyway.

Not literally, but just mentally, emotionally dysfunctional, sexually, and that is enough.

I’m sure you could meet someone that has the same needs. Often I wish there were someone to wake up to. Someone to just lay in bed with and chill, hold each other

I don’t
like intimacy
nor sex
nor romance

I once witnessed illness taking over someone and how the wife looked after him 24 7 it was so stressful to witness and also sad.

I don’t think I ever want to get intimitaley involved with anyone for that reason.

But I completely understand, there’s something special about intimacy.

I’d like to have a wife someday but I doubt that will ever happen.

Tbh I think looking after someone in later life is much more likely via romance than plain old sex

I am a sexual anarexic. It’s been awhile. I got close to a woman in the hospital. I told her one day about my fears. Then I realized I had been intimate all along. But at home I push women away. It just seems like they want to sweep me off my feet. They make such quick decisions it scares me. I also put women on a pedestal because they have control over their feelings. I’ve got to find a way to get past the first barrier. A woman would like me if they just talked to me.

I feel the same.

Nobody’s going to look after me anyway.

Here’s my honest dating profile from years ago. It’s still true today.

Yea, I don’t really want to put that on anyone either. I’m kind of hoping I don’t fall into a serious illness when I’m older :sweat_smile:

I could be you that falls ill :open_mouth: who know what the future holds, all I know is when you get older you seek a more emotional relationship rather than sexual.
I have often seen senior couples helping each other put on their coats and stuff and thought it would be so nice to have that kind of support. We hope not to fall ill to a point we can’t do anything, rather be dead than that, but the one thing is for sure is we all get old and it is good to build up friends and maybe even a lover for when we do

I had a crush on someone. I don’t think he even lives here anymore. I shouldn’t have said anything about it. Now, a worse stalker is making me sicker, so I look a lot worse. So he probably wouldn’t like me anyway.

yeh, this I am good to seek out but I really don’t think I can handle the responsibility that comes with a lover. and yeh, it could be me, or both that fall ill, but I hope that a carer would be good enough, I do not really want to make a lover have to look after me, and I would feel very very uncomfortable having a lover and thinking…if they fall ill I will not be there for them 24/7 or such…

does it make sense :frowning:
