I am confused about my sexuality

So I don’t feel anything for boys or girls. I’ve had a boyfriend but it went down hill since I couldn’t have sex because I wasn’t getting wet enough and he got fed up of waiting for the day. He told me that I should get sexual feeling when seeing somebody but I always thought if you go out with somebody it’s because you really like spending time with them and like some of their interests. What he said has really confused me and now I can’t understand why people do go out with each other :s-smilie:

Like I couldn’t imagine myself with girl but I can see myself with a boy. What’s going on with me :frown:
My friend did say I sound like a Demisexual but I’m not sure what’s your thoughts on it?
Sounds like you could be demisexual to me. Or you could be straight romantically, but asexual.
Maybe he just wasn't the right person, you may not have been sexually attracted to him enough? If you struggle getting wet then you can always use lubrication or maybe practice on yourself first though masturbation to see what you like and what gets you aroused. The stigma around lgbtq+ has been around for years and you may be afraid to experiment, you could try with a girl and discover that you really like it. I hope this helps!

That’s the issue I don’t like masturbation because it is boring for me and gives me pain for month which is why I don’t do tbh. He always told me that I must be underdeveloped :/

Perhaps you need to explore yourself in different ways? clearly it wasn't working they way you were doing it but there are so many ways to pleasure yourself. I know it can be frowned upon but there are so many toys you can get to stimulate and pleasure different things and perhaps pornographic videos may give you an insight into different things?

sexuality is a spectrum and it’s personal to you, so i wouldn’t feel comfortable telling you where you are on the spectrum. i’m demisexual tho so i can relate to not getting sexual feelings just by looking at someone of any gender; but i may get sexual feelings when i look at someone if i have an emotional connection with that person, and i enjoy sex with them. have you ever had a crush on a friend before? maybe you just haven’t met that person yet. but yeah, i know how it feels to wonder why you think differently. you’re not ‘underdeveloped’ btw :smile:

Did you and your ex bf ever try engage in foreplay? maybe you weren’t turned on enough hence why you weren’t wet enough

Thank you for saying I’m not underdeveloped :biggrin:
I’ve had the urge to kiss a friend but not to have sex maybe that was a start of some kind of attraction, but I didn’t feel like that straight away it took 2 months for me to feel something for him. For me to feel like kissing someone with only knowing him for 2 months was a shock because I normally have to wait 6-1 year to feel something for somebody but again these are not sexual urges just kiss and hug urges
