I'm friendly, attractive, funny and interesting. People of the opposite sex and I have a good time together, but it always seems to remain platonic level. I am simply unable to look at them as dating material.

Part of my problem might be that I recently started identifying as asexual, and perhaps I feel most people would view a relationship with me as pointless. I have had intense romantic connections before in the past, but they were always with people who were a bit of a mind **** to date. One was a transman, and the other was a psychopath. Sex was not a big part of either relationship.

I really would like to have a meaningful connection with someone, but I don't want it to be forced. The people that have been hitting on me lately are very gracious and attractive people, I just don't know how to reciprocate or feel anything for them. It's been years since I have felt anything for anyone. It's like there is a block.

What the **** is wrong with me?
