Hi I am a person who doesn't seem to experience love in the same way others seem to. What I mean by that is I don't really have a desire to get in a relationship but I seem to still desire and enjoy things that seem typically reserved to relationships, like love languages, cuddling, other forms of intimacy.

Greetings Ash,
Welcome to our forum. Please feel free to lurk, browse, etc.

I looked at your other thread, and responded there briefly. To summarize, you do seem to want friendships, just not (romantic) relationships. Come to think of it, you could possibly call yourself a relationship anarchist (RA). If you do, there's a lot more wiggle room. Anyway, I'm glad you're here!

Sincerely,
Kevin T., "official greeter" :)

Notes:

There's a *lot* of good info in Golden Nuggets. Have a look!

Please read through the guidelines if you haven't already.

Note: You needn't read every reply to your posts, especially if someone posts in a disagreeable way. Given the size and scope of the site it's hard not to run into the occasional disagreeable person. Please contact the mods if you do (or if you see any spam), and you can block the person if you want.

If you have any questions about the board itself, please private-message a mod and they'll do their best to help.

Welcome aboard!
 
Hi! Thanks for your response here and in the other thread. I have done some research on relationship anarchy back in the day and that very might be the case!

It does sound like a good fit.

If you only enjoy cuddling as far as touching goes, but prefer other love language acts like words of affirmation, or acts of service, etc., have you considered whether you are on the asexual spectrum?

I have definitely considered it! I do enjoy other things but I am not sure how much they require attraction to another person sort of thing. I generally suspect that I am grey-asexual and grey-romantic but I feel I need to confirm if that is true or not. I am trying to come to terms with these desires (or lack thereof when compared to what is typical) and what it means in terms of what I want for my future.
