I have a really close friend and he’s sex involved like the majority of young guys our age so naturally conversations about who he’s into, or who he’s sleeping with, or a flings etc etc come up often.

I trust him, so several weeks ago I tried to explain my lack of attraction to him. No matter how I explained it he just couldn’t understand. He was like “Have you been checked by a doctor?” and then “Maybe it’s in your head, you’ll find the right one”. I can’t fault him for it because I know he meant no harm, but it’s so amusing to me how people can’t even comprehend NOT feeling the desire to have sex. I just dropped the conversation because I knew there was a misunderstanding too great there.
