I was just wondering, would there happen to be any graysexuals on the forum? I have yet to come across someone else like me. Asexuals also welcome. c:

By the way you put it, it would then be gray heterosexual. XD

We experience sexual attraction under certain circumstances. c:

Hello there!

I've never been in a relationship either, but I just know I'm graysexual. c:

It's nice to meet someone else from the spectrum, however!

At least you can find solace in the fact you met one. c:

I spent my entire life feeling like "the freak heterosexual", and when I finally learned I have an actual identity, it turns out, for all intended purposes, that I'm "population: 1" cx

Perhaps capable of sexual desire under certain conditions.

From The Urban Dictionary:

Quote:
graysexual
Written also: greysexual

adj: sometimes having sexual attraction and/or feelings, but usually not. Generally asexual but perhaps capable of sexual desire under certain conditions, eg love or romance.

noun: person who identifies as graysexual

Whereas sexual orientation exists along a continuum of heterosexual, bisexual and homosexual, sex drive also exists along a continuum. Some people (highly sexual) desire to have sex with anyone they can; some people (strictly asexual) have no sexual desires; graysexuals are predominantly asexual but capable of manifesting sexual desires under specific circumstances. This is not to be confused with an asexual that is satisfying a partner's sexual desires despite lacking sexual desire of their own.

Recently been considering the possibility of being asexual, although it's scary to decide on a label without knowing if it's completely true or not!
