In my early 20s, I never dated, but I attracted women and that validation was enough for me. I did want a relationship then, but was shy and inexperienced.
I’ve had sex since then and have matured to the point where sex isn’t all that important to me. My sex drive is controllable now. Unfortunately, it’s hard for me to just shut out women completely and go my own way because deep down I crave the validation I get from them. I was abused by my mother as a child. Maybe it’s related. I don’t know.
Any advice?
