    I travel a lot, I'm an androphile (attracted to men/masculinity) and I'm pretty meh about my own gender. People can make their own assumptions and I'm cool with either (or neither) and I'll do what I want. I have trouble meeting new people though. I don't know how to make friends and as much as I love being alone I'd like to meet someone who also likes to travel and who is either asexual or just has a super low sex drive (or is just happy having an open relationship and not sleeping with me very often XD).

    I feel like my criteria is too strict and I feel like there's no one out there who'd be interested. I've had relationships in the past but it always ends up being long distance and I spend lots of money on just seeing them for a few weeks at a time. It sucks. I don't connect to people well or quickly and really I don't really know what to do. I'm not crazy lonely or anything, I love my solitude, but I'd really like to feel connected to another human being.

    While I can't say I'm in a similar situation at all, I feel like this is one of the big benefits of the internet - finding like-minded people. Have you searched for online resources? I'm sure there are others out there who are looking for something similar, and unlike 50/20 years ago, it should be a lot easier to find that person! And since you travel a lot, the person's current location wouldn't be the problem it might otherwise be. Good luck!

    There are probably queer travel tours. Maybe taking a trip with one would be a good place to meet people you are interested in.

    Thanks for the help, guys!

    I might give a queer tour a go. I've done the forums of similar interests but I'm just too "inbetween" for a lot of what's out there. XD

    Thanks for taking the time to comment! <3
