Is he likely asexual?

[Anonymous]

Talking to this guy. I know he hasn't slept with anyone before. He has autism, 26 years. He is a very intelligent and handsome man. A little weird and socially awkward, but in like a sweet and genuine way. At the same time he is quite assertive and driven.

Is it highly unlikely for a handsome man at the age of 26 to be a virgin? Id call him an 8/10. Plus he takes proper care of himself. He is religious but told me he was raised as atheist and culturally he considers himself quite western.

I know I know. Ask. But I'm shy and a virgin myself and we haven't quite delved into that territory. I'm quite eager to finally explore that aspect but since he is autistic there is a chance he might not be as interested as I am.

Absolutely nobody is asexual
It doesn’t exist
It’s not like homosexuality or bisexuality


When someone doesn’t have a libido it’s either a genetic defect or a symptom of some larger disease


But that’s not necessarily the reason he’s a virgin


It’s hard enough for neurotypical guys to get laid in their 20’s
The tism is probably killing his chances


If you like him, and clearly you do, there’s nothing standing in your way


Congrats you found a hot 26 year old virgin and you get to be his first everything
Which means he’ll never get over you.


I’d say just shoot your shot

I don't think there is anything you said to suggest he is asexual. Unfortunately, this situation might be more common than you think. I'm in something similar myself. I'm absolutely not asexual but a virgin. I get more attention from girls than I can handle, but I don't have the personality or social skills do do anything myself.

He could be? Not necessarily though. Maybe he's just saving himself for the right person (possibly you, hehe). Not everyone is into casual sex.

For some people sex is just a physical pleasure thing they do with just anyone while with others (regardless if religious or not) it's an a lot more special thing.

It's common for autistic people to be demisexual. It basically means they have to have a healthy emotional connection before they desire physical intimacy. I am like this.

You may have to get more involved with him to see if he s asexual. Sure it is ok to be a virgin at 26. Ask him out for some dates and see how it goes.

We don't know anything about this guy so you're the one who needs to answer these questions for yourself

How do u both look? Wdym assertive and driven

[Asker]

We both look good. Assertive and driven means someone who chases their goals and plans

[Opinion Owner]

Ohhh. Why do u like him?

[Asker]

He is very genuine and kind without pretense. We share the same hobbies and whenever he shows interest I get all fluttery. Hardly ever experienced that.

What makes him a 8/10

[Opinion Owner]

But how do u know yes genuine without pretense

[Opinion Owner]

Corner his somewhere alone and tell him u physically need him

Based on how you described it's no shock or no surprise that he would still be a virgin because some things will always be the same in regards to how men and women interact with each other

He could be but he takes care of himself leans me closer to not being asexual

[Mariogirl09]

You have to ask if he's interested

[Karan2655]

He is not asexual

[Karan2655]

Better ask him rather than assuming
