Ever since I broke up with my ex-girlfriend, I haven't had any desire to get physical with the girls I go on first dates with...

Give yourself time man. If the breakup was fairly recent and it was a LTR, you can expect to feel a certain apathy toward these new girls. I know I felt it plenty of times after big breakups; it's not exactly something dysfunctional, but a kind of tragic boredom.

Look a little deeper into yourself and I bet you'll see in there that you're like the loyal puppy whose master has left, and the new owners throw every treat at you, but you won't eat - even things that were your absolute favorite before. It's some kind of animal inner-grieving, it's difficult to control it, but on the bright side it makes you more attractive to the new bitches.

Goes away in time. Sometimes a long time though, so there's no point in stopping seeing new women just because you're not all there, keep at it anyway.

Get more sleep. 8-9 hours a night.

Tobacco? Pot? Adderall? Alcohol?

"so maybe I'm just past my sexual prime?" No

So did you really break up with your exgf and what was the situation, we are missing some pieces to the puzzle

Yr not over her. And you are depressed. Not I wanna slit my wrists depressed, but more like walking depression where you function normally but have no positivity. It happens. It took me a while to get over my ex. I was living my life but I wasn't over her. I want pining for her or even hoping that she would come back. I didn't even want to talk to her cuz she meant nothing to me anymore.. But i couldn't look to the future... I kept looking back at the past

Try supplementing with ZMA and look at your diet.

If you watch porn, stop.

Hit the gym if you aren't already.
