Default I can't imagine myself in a relationship at all

Basically lately I've been noticing a kind of weird thought cycle thats been going around in my head. I'm out to my parents and my important friends as lesbian but lately I don't know if thats right. Let me be clear though, I'm not attracted to men now, its basically that I haven't been physically or emotionally attracted to anyone, guy or girl. I've warmed up to the idea of being with a guy but I would say it's still not high on my to do list, so to speak haha. I was in a brief relationship but it was a disaster because I'm pretty much emotionally unavailable and in a very short period of time I didn't even want to kiss her. I don't know if it was just her or if it was just how I am but honestly, knowing myself, I'm leaning towards the latter. I'm just really frustrated because part of me wants to be in a relationship but in real life I'm disinterested. I feel like there's something wrong with me. Any advice??

No advice, I'm afraid, because I'm currently having roughly the same feelings as you are, and don't really know how to deal with them either. There's nothing wrong with you, by the way.

i have found that i have to start opening up a little more just because i need to be closer in some of my friendships. however, i don't feel compelled towards a romantic relationship either right now. one of the things i'm doing real soon is talking with a counselor about how anxious i can be and how inadequate i feel about myself a lot of the time. i think my feelings are leading me wrong big time and i don't want them to lead my life anymore. i don't know if this applies to you, but thanks for sharing what's up. i appreciate it and do understand.

If you have no interest right now, that's fine. Stick with "single", and focus on other aspects of your life. Maybe things will change.
