Some people here are going to find my comments confusing. But I'm going to say them anyway.
I have Asperger's Syndrome, and this has affected me all of and in every area of my life, most significantly, interacting with other people.
I know I have this God-given ability to be intimate with other people, but I just feel like I can't be, even with my own family. I've read more than enough books on single sexuality, but as far as I'm concerned the term is an oxymoron.
I feel lonely all the time and I don't know how much longer I can take of this. I've never been on one date in my life, so marriage is obviously far off the line.
The only real way I can relate to in regards to controlling my urges is that I'll just ignore or even deny I have desires. I'll just remain asexual until marriage. I know that may seem unrealistic to some people, but normal doesn't always mean good. I even have trouble seeing the relationship between Christ and his Church as marriage because there's no "eros" in it.
I've only recently become a Christian, even though I was raised in a Christian family. I'm not used to reading my Bible or even praying everyday, and I'm used to doing everything on my own terms. I'd just like to talk to someone.
