If this was true you would not be here on CD. You are looking for sympathy and pity, not understanding.

Japanese men are refusing to marry and they're boycotting women.

As a lifetime asexual I wish I knew the secret so I could market it. I liked girls as a child but eventually found women unattractive. Gay guys that you can see are annoying, petty and often drug addicted so that turned me away from them really fast. I have friends who are also asexual. It seems that we are all "mad scientist" types and asexuals I know tend to have higher IQ ratings than average. I do have female friends and they are asexual too, one is a physics professor and the other is a cardiologist. She is married to a gay man and they have two children. One of the happiest families in my opinion. She loves her husband despite the fact they sleep in separate rooms and never have sex.

You know i neither crave sympathy or pity. I was frustated when i posted this and wanted solution .
I thought " This is what internet is for. Go on prince willa mode and write everything which is bothering you. Nobody would know you as you are anonymous. You would not get harsh treatment like you would if you talk about it to someone in real life. Just do it. " and i did it.
I never had anyone with whom i can even share my happiness with let alone feelings apart from my soul. And sometimes i feel all alone. I have finally come to the sense that i would forever be a heterosexual and there is absolutely no way to get rid of these feelings without hurting yourself.
Wish there was something which would turn me into a robot or something with no emotion or feelings.
Attention was the last thing i wanted. I have seen how this world operates. There is no place for selflessness, kindness or understanding. Most people are selfish and just want one thing in life MONEY. No idea what they would do they with such money. Maybe they would take it with them in heaven or hell. I

I apologize to everyone for wasting their time. Life is too short, live as much as you can and try to enjoy it.......

You are aware, of course, that many women share your perspective that getting involved with the opposite sex is nothing but trouble, that even if it works out, they are still getting the short end of the stick.

As the fairy tales of happy ever after, it's why men and women continue to search for their soul mates despite mountains of evidence that it's an impossible quest.

Glad to feel you've found some measure of peace in this discussion.

As for my Ocd. I don't believe in treatments or anything. There is no way a person can get rid of it. I have researched about it. But i have finally learned to live with it,
As for the romantic relationship ? Hmm. You already know my views about it but it seems like you have no solution for my question and just saying what others are saying,
Its ok, i understand. It may seem really hard for you guys to reply to a person whose views are different from others. I am not harming anyone. I am not abusing anyone. So why don't i deserve answers which i am looking for ?
Why people just come here and say " don't worry, things will get better" or " don't worry you will change your mind" or " are you nuts, you are so so weird ". I didn't asked this question to see if someone could change my mind by the example of their ultimate relationship.

But anyway, thanks for trying and i apologize if i was mean to you,
How sad for you. You apparently have surrounded yourself with people that are incapable of happiness, perhaps? There are plenty of very happy marriages, even if you've never seen or acknowledged them.

I don't know that I would take that to the bank. Not sure a C-D diagnosis is all that accurate.

But I can certainly understand not wanting to be plagued by unwanted thoughts and desires.

The only way I know to do this is to think about something else. Find your passion, your life's work, and throw yourself into it.

Baring that, you can always put a rubber band around your wrist and snap it every time you have an unwanted thought.

Things may be headed in that direction here. Of the women I know in their twenties, not a one is interested in marriage. Several are dating guys that want to marry them, but they keep putting it off. Why trade the best years of your life for sex without seduction? Then there's all the cleaning and cooking and childcare. Not to mention, most wives end up working a full=time job as well. Better just to earn your own way in the world and call it good.

Recently read that Ashton Kutcher was having troubles convincing Mila Kunis to marry him. If you can believe the National Enquirer, she is reluctant to sign a prenup, no doubt worried that this does not bode well for happily ever after.

Or perhaps she is thinking about how things turned out with his previous marriage.
Perhaps young women don't want to get married because they see the men/children that are around them. If I were in my twenties, I wouldn't be interested in marriage either. Men that can't find jobs, live in their parent's basement and toil at menial, go nowhere jobs? Young men today are so completely selfish, I wouldn't want to be in a marriage with them, let alone raise a family. Who wants one more child?

How sad, the folks here can only see the tough part of a relationship. In doing so, you miss out on all the wonderful parts.

As for the OP, they are only 18, aren't they? Hardly mature enough to make decisions like "I'll never be with a women".

You know its very difficult. Infact almost impossible because your brain operates you not the other way around. Just recently I was working on my own game which I was building and yes programming is the only think which makes me feel amazing,
And I really liked this rubber band idea. I would definately try it. Great idea.
