Not coitis, only animals engage in such behavior.

But you are asexual and compared sex to making a pizza.

But... I actually have to reconsider demisexuality - in light of what I realised...

Because... while intimacy could lead to sexual attraction.. and sex.
The opposite would also be true - that sex creates more intimacy between two people.

So now I'm not sure if this was another subconscious dismissive-avoidant tactic to keep people at arm's length.

It's really hard to say.

Odette,
for what it's worth I have never perceived you as emotionally unavailable or anything like that. You always struck me as a sappy and touchy feel person.

^ Thank you AG! That's because I'm empathetic. Being dismissive in this way does not make one a sociopath lol

But my emotional shutdown lies in the fact that I never let anyone get (really) close to me romantically and haven't had one proper relationship in nearly 30 years now. And I am also strangely unphased by the whole thing.
Unphased like... I genuinely feel nothing about this.

Even now if someone asked - Are you sad about this? Or - Do you want to have a relationship?
My only conscious answer would be: I have no preference. I simply don't care.

^ The only difference is that now I know that there is something unhealthy about my level of dismissiveness... and there are much deeper reasons behind it.

Elysia - I did see your reply and I agree. I never said I was 100% that this girl is avoidant.

But I'm also taking into account the fact that AG has these negative experiences with women time and time again.
The attachment theory could be a possible explanation... since insecurely attached people often date each other.

Well.....
I considered giving her another chance, but she is being incredibly selfish given the circumstances. She asked for a rain check and I initially told her next Friday would be the best day for me. She seemed anxious to meet me sooner and said "Why can't we just meet and go for a walk downtown?" So I said "Sure. What time can you meet?". She said "How about tomorrow?" and I told her that Saturday and Sunday would not be good days for me because I work from 7am to 7pm both days and will be very tired after work. I told her tonight is a good night though. Then she had the audacity to ask me "Well, can't you just meet me after work tomorrow?" She asked me this after me telling her that I have to work 12 hours tomorrow. Unbelievable.... A decent person would feel bad about standing someone up and be cooperative about setting up another date, but she is just being impossible. Next.....

I did read up on it, Odette. That's how I know I am fearful-avoidant. It's irrelevant now because I'm not playing these games with her.

AG Lol
That would be pretty funny.

I actually do this you know... avoid skype dates and calls and messaging.
I'm not proud of it now that I know the reasons behind it.
I used to give myself excuses (like "I'm just too busy".."I just can't do this".. "I need space".. "This is really draining".. "This person is just too much. They are too needy:.. "They're an emotional vampire and sucking the life out of me" etc)

^ It's a very compulsive subconscious thing.. like a claustrophobic person trying to break out of an enclosed space.

Sorry to keep derailing your thread..

But ok... with you, this wouldn't happen to such an extent because you're not trying to get very close to me, in a way I would find invasive (probably because you're also avoidant lol). I usually overreact when someone tries to get close... rather than Sheldon/Amy friends
