Virgin and single at 35

I'm 35, from London where I work in an office, I've never had any relationship as I'm not interested in either men or women. I will die at a virgin too because the thought of me having sex makes me sick and it grosses me out. Is this odd to be disgusted at sex and relationships?

Sounds like you're asexual - completely normal and a large community of people out there who have the same feelings as you. Maybe have a look on TikTok for some like minded people!

I agree, you sound like you're not interested, and there's nothing wrong with that. It could be something to explore with someone like a therapist, if you are interested in checking if these feelings originated anywhere, or if it's just how you are. I know the world puts a lot of emphasis on sex and relationships, but that doesn't mean it is the way for everyone.

Are you a bot.

No, you are possibly asexual and aromantic, which is a perfectly normal, if uncommon, expression of human sexuality. If you’re happy in your life then there’s no need to seek out things you don’t need.

Has there been any kind of past trauma that has impacted you?

I can’t even imagine this situation. But genuine question OP, what exactly do you want to achieve from posting this?
