This is true. I didn't think about the aspect that some people feel like those who are alone don't really want to be. I had one such person attempt "rescue" many times.
That's one way, at least. Others are a little more obvious, like showing your physical attributes off. I don't have a problem with that, though, since showing off my body isn't really an instinct of mine. I had it described to me that the first smile from a girl you are flirting with is a sign that she likes you. This was told to me by Lindiel, and I figured she'd know best, since she's a female herself.
Not sexually impotent... eh, I meant that more in the sense that I couldn't pick up on a cue to save my life. As in I don't understand when people are flirting with me. I don't understand when I'm flirting with others. I don't have the same tiny scoring system in my head for a woman's looks that it seems most guys have. When I stare at a woman's shirt, it's because I am honestly curious as to what it says, despite the stereotype that says that's just a clever lie. Pornography disgusts me, and when women show off their body or something similar, I recoil.
These things led me to believe I was asexual for a while, but I don't honestly know. The best phrase I could come up with for describing that wasn't exactly the right one. I think I'm either clueless or have a lower libido than most igneous rock formations. Maybe both. Maybe I'm just an igneous rock formation therian.
