Yes, I do think you might meet someone be it male or female to share a place with you for companion purposes without sex. There are lots of people, I'm sure, out there that would like the same thing as you. There are some people that have slight autism and would be a good companion for you.

What you need to do is write a list of what you want in a live-in friendship and see if there is a asexual forum and see what happens.
But that's the thing...I'm not asexual. I'm celibate. And there's a difference. I don't necessarily want a live-in friendship either.

I don't want a relationship right now. But that doesn't mean I have nothing to offer.

Okay City, maybe you just have a very narrow view of relationships.

Not everyone has sex on the first date, in the first week of getting to know one another or even in the first few months and possibly years.

I admit when I was young and stupid I gave it up too easily to some, but at this point in my I would not be having sex so quickly with someone else (if I were single).

You can work at your own pace...if the other person isn't receptive to that then they aren't a match for you.

True. So stop feeling bummed out about it.

Face it city. You have very little to offer anyone. With your attitude and mentality it wont get you far.

By romantic, I meant boyfriend/girlfriend relationship.

Do you not want any sexual relations at all, no kissing, petting, oral? Are you just wanting to avoid penetration?

Perhaps you can't see yourself having sex because you haven't found someone worthy of having sex with? When you have an emotional bond with someone sex is very natural but if you've never experienced being intimately close with someone I can see how maybe you couldn't imagine having sex with a person.

I guess I don't understand how you could have a romatic relationship without at least some of those things.
I'm willing to do other sexual stuff, just not actual sex. In order to keep it PG-13, let's just leave it at that.

And I'm afraid of sex. Emotional bonds are irrelevant. Certain people give me sexual thoughts, but I'm afraid to actually have sex with them.

That's a good point. Hey OP, are you talking about a long-term, committed relationship with no sex and no marriage, or are you just talking about a long-term friendship where both parties are free to see other people?

I could definitely do the latter. There's no way I'd do the former. I'm celibate, but heck if I plan on dying celibate.
I'm talking about the former.

If someone would angrily break up with me for not having sex or marrying, they're not worth my time.

Most people who are in love will want to have sex with you eventually. The best sex is the type that has to do with love, and many people may not be able to get passed never being able to make love with you or whomever.
