I (F20) have an incredibly low sex drive. I haven’t engaged in any sexual activity with another person since November and have never masturbated (I’ve never felt the need or want to do it). Usually when I do have sex it’s because I feel obligated to do it with someone once I’ve been in a relationship with them for a long period of time or because I just feel like it’s been a while since I’ve had sex and ‘don’t people do this regularly’?
Lately I’ve been wanting to get back into dating, but I feel awkward and am struggling with how/when to bring this up with potential s/o’s. Of course, I’d like to bring this up earlier on so that I don’t drag on that talking stage with someone only to have them find out something that might be a deal breaker for them. However, I also don’t want to bring this up and make things awkward because I brought this up too soon.
Am I overthinking this? Is this a normal issue that people go through? Ideally I would want to find someone with a similarly low sex drive so that I don’t feel obligated to have sex and they don’t feel like they’re always pestering me for sex. How would I go about finding someone that I can relate to on that level?
