Inflikted Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 I'm trying to figure out why it's taking me so long to get into the whole "dating/ relationship" side of life. I'm going on 22, here, and I've never even been on one date. I know there's going to be people telling me that I should just appreciate the single life for now, and work on myself, and all that, and I understand all that. But, it's not like I'm rushing myself to fall in love, get married, and live happily ever after, or something like that. It's just hard to be 22 and to not be able to date, and experience that kind of intimate relationship. Now, I know I probably have some personal issues that would prevent girls from wanting to date me. But that's not what this topic is about. I have a particular problem that I'm not sure the cause of, or, more importantly, how to "fix" it. See, I really don't ever "feel" anything for girls I meet. I'm obviously not expecting to fall head over heels instantly, or anything like that, but none of the girls I ever meet make me think "Hm, I'd really like to get to know her better, and get closer to her". I'm not sure why, really. I just can't seem to become "attracted" to anyone. Admittedly, I could probably push myself to try to meet more girls, but as it is, I already meet a steady amount of new people fairly regularly, and I'm a bit too introverted to be able to go above and beyond that. Like I said, I know I probably have my own issues to work on that are preventing girls from being attracted to me, but I'm not even getting that far. At least getting rejected for my problems would be a step forward; I can't even find girls that I want to take that risk with, yanno? This seems like such a bizarre problem. Most guys can just eye up a pretty girl and decide they want to get with her. Not me, though. I don't know what's wrong with me. @_@

Author Inflikted Posted November 24, 2010 Author Posted November 24, 2010 I dunno... I mean, on a very basic level, I consider myself sexually attracted the women in general, and I do enjoy the idea of being with a girl. I just can't ever seem to personally feel attracted to girls I meet.
