I only feel interested in sex for a certain period of time, and then afterward I feel nothing about it
I want to share something I’ve noticed about myself, and I wonder if anyone who is asexual has experienced this too.
I’ve noticed that for a certain period, around one to two months, I become very interested in and curious about sex (horny mb?). During this time, I masturbate more often, and sometimes I want to touch someone (I don’t actually have one).
But after that phase passes, I no longer feel anything toward those desires. I stop thinking about or wanting to have sex, or even intimacy, and my sex drive drops again. And this is what I’m like most of the time.
I also realized that I’m asexual about 6-7 years ago. I don’t have sexual needs and I don’t enjoy engaging in sexual activity. These sudden periods where I become horny and develop sexual desire happen at unpredictable times. The frequency is also inconsistent over the years: it might happen once a year, twice, or even not at all for 2 consecutive years.
I wonder if this is strange. Because after going through those periods and “returning to normal,” I find that I don’t really like the version of myself during those times.
