All his life he hasn't experienced sexual attraction to the opposite gender?? How is that ...

He could be asexual or something ╮(￣▽￣)╭

Maybe gay

He said he never felt that type of attraction before so I doubt that he is gay, since that would mean that he at least felt some type of attraction towards another person. But I read in a study once, that people who suffer from immense depression usually don’t feel any attraction to people, so he must have been really depressed and lonely without knowing it.

As someone who has gone through immense depression and still recovering I can confirm that research is true.

Idk I haven't ┑(￣Д ￣)┍

I'm depressed all the time and still get attracted to dudes, i wonder why?

Maybe that’s why it’s “usually” and not “always” that this happens. Also, apparently it depends on the level of depression. If you have suicidal thoughts and practice self harm, it’s pretty hard to care about others.

That makes sense, while i do question the point of living sometimes i wouldn't say I'm necessarily suicidal so much as just generally down about living at times.

existential depression checkkk (it's weird that the name has depression when it's not like that at all) anyway just search it up

Facts.

Thanks, i will!

Holy shit. To a T! My mom died and it's been like this since then, i also have aspergers and do a lot of introspection. For me I'd say "meaninglessness" is the thing for me.

Something i think is weird though is that you said it's not a depression? I definitely feel a way that i can only describe as depressed all the time. But going back into meaninglessness, it's actually hard for me to be happy about things, i get excited for a second and then it's just like "but what's the point"?

Ooh same but I don’t have aspergers.Type 2 bipolar is what I have.
