I've been questioning this for a bit now and I would love some insights and thoughts from you.
I'm 20F ally. Had very few relationships. Back when i was 12+- i did feel a sort of attraction to fictional characters and i had a boyfriend i did like to spend time with. But then again that relationship blew over me like nothing. It's like in my head, after a bit, i just threw that away. For the last 3 years i also have had no romantic attraction to any TV characters or fictional ones.
Now I'm talking to a guy that i have a lot in common with. Tonight will be my 4th date. I've quickly found myself comfortable with him but i still don't feel a romantic or even sexual attraction to him.
I love the idea of love, i love romantic movies (especially 90s and 2000s.) so it's not like I'm disgusted or indifferent to it. The idea of a boyfriend is very nice in my head also.
One of my friends is queer. I don't know the exact name anymore but it's where she has to know the person thoroughly to be attracted to them. Could that be it?
I know that all this is a huge spectrum and I don't have to label anything. But any explanation or experience is helpful.
And if you need to know something more then don't be afraid to ask.
