Do you find yourself lacking in emotions?

I call bullshit. A quick look at your submitted posts history tells me that you are just an an attention whore who is trying to find retarded reasons to make posts here.

Maybe you're a sociopath. Look into Dark Triad. Or perhaps you'd be suited to MGTOW.

Nah man, as you get older and go through some shit it's hard to be empathetic or even sympathetic to people's crap, it becomes progressively less likely for something to trigger emotional reactions in you. Your thresholds get a LOT higher.

Same goes for love. A noob will think he's in love for a bitch because he associates the chick with finally being sexually fulfilled, another won't catch feelings for the sweetest and most submissive girl because he knows just how much they don't match.

As for your issue with sex, you're still messing stuff up. Sex on itself is at least as good as jerking off and that's pretty good already. You might miss the whole bond you had with the one ex and "just" sex might pale in comparison, but it'll still be good.

Personally as of recently I began felling like I missed sex within a bonded LTR and was changing my mind about completing some bucket list items before committing again, I was just sluting around to see if I'd bump into the right chick. Then I bumped into a chick that was looking into getting seriously fucked and willing to fuck seriously and my urge to enter a LTR dwindled.

Maybe you are depressed.

When on a depression you shut off your emotions, or any spontaneity you may have had. You become extremely judgemental. The problem is this becomes your default state.

My brother is depressed. The best friend of my dad died and he didn't even feel empathy for him. He is very socially awkward and anxious, but it's because of this. His ALWAYS on his head. He even speaks alones sometimes, imagining scenarios. But he wasn't always like that, I'm sure.

If you feel this is the case, break your comfort zone. Go speak to strangers. Get rejected. Lay on the floor in the middle of the street and shout. Break your comfort zone man. Also you can try getting a therapist... it's always good If you feel like this. What worked for me, I went to one of this groups for leadership training and they made us do the most uncomfortable things, shout our lungs out, and even made us cry. Once you spill all of your shrunken feelings you begin to feel alive again. You can also try this kind of dynamics in acting lessons, improvisation, dance, clown, mime, etc. Find what suits you and makes you expresss yourself.

You're just going through a phase.
