Precisely.

It could be your avpd, or it could not. Can't say. I know that I'm not really interested in a romantic relationship, and fear of rejection has very little to do with it (as I've definitely tried in the past). I just don't want one. No interest in children, or kissing, any of that.

Some non-AvPD people are this way, too.

It's your life. If you don't want a boyfriend, you don't have to have one. I think society puts too much emphasis on dating. I guess because of the whole... having children thing. But for some of us, children are simply not a goal.

Honestly, I would be happy with a life long platonic room mate.
