Well I"m going to hijack this thread.
How do you approach your doctor about your disinterest in/difficulty with sex/intercourse, especially when you don't have a partner. (As that is likely to come up) I mean I can't out and say "Dr, I want to be bangin' escorts and I can't get it up." And "I miss masturbating."
I know I could approach him about low T, but last time I was tested I was fine, plus between depression and the anti-Ds (wellbutrin and cymbalta)...
It was brought to my attention some time ago, would it be possible I was asexual. Then I also stumbled on this thread... https://www.asexuality.org/en/topic/25484-i-dont-want-sex-but-i-crave-physical-touch/ Which kind of hits on my issue. Sex...Meh. Touch....nice.

That's not a hijack...that's what the thread is here for. Most people have a varying sex drive, and the desire to have intercourse can come and go depending on many factors. The most common excuse is low testosterone, but that's just an excuse and is rarely accurate. The most important factor is psychological. As a general rule, when you don't have a lot of sex, you start not to want it as much. If you've been through a breakup, or something that has caused emotional issues, some tend not to want sex as much. If you've had a lot of stress, you can tend to not want sex. There's nothing wrong with that: these bouts can last months or even years, and they won't hurt you in the least (in fact, not "paying" for it, one way or another, helps your wallet stay thicker).
Sometimes there are hormonal issues at play (not just testosterone) and if the lack of drive bothers you, can you talk to a doctor. They can do a hormone test panel that may show an issue such as hypothyroidism, which will cause depleted sex drive in most people, but simple iodine pills can fix. To talk to a doctor, be blunt. Just say "I have a low sex drive, have had for a while, and I wondered if there was a cause for it". Doctors almost always appreciate a patient who is straight-forward and blunt as it removes guesswork and games, and you'll get a better diagnosis when the facts are clear.
In the end, sex drives come and go. Many factors influence it. Emotional trauma, stress, breakups, amount of exercise you do, and many other factors play into it. Personally, I find if I don't have sex for a while I get used to it, and don't worry about the lack of drive. It will come back when the time is right.
My best advice: if it worries you, talk to your GP but be 100% honest. He/She will then help figure out what the cause, if any, is. If it doesn't worry you, then be happy. You've taken a major distraction for most males off the plate, and that doesn't make you any less a male because of it. Everyone is different.

Dave when you see thisshaking back and forth, you don't think "Man, I'd like to bang that fine butt"
No, but I do find it aesthetically pleasing. Mind you that is how I view most women, not as bone inducing, but as visually pleasing.
Visually pleasing is correct until the clothes come off, then it becomes boner inducing.:biggrin2:

Hi Doc, please cancel my eyeball replacement surgery. I thought my eyesight was failing recently because the computer screen was hard to read, but today I learned how to adjust my computer's performance settings and everything is crisp and bright again! I can see!!

I'm sorry but I don't see a signature therefore this contract is not legal. Another very important clue to the validity of this document is the exclusion of the suede boots covered in chalk. It is a very well known fact the boots in question are leather, high cut with 5 inch spiked heels, very stretched, tattered and cootey infested. Therefore beyond a shadow of a doubt the initials are forged and we do not have a sign document.
I'm told his lawyer was disbarred and we've hired a new legal team. You really do not want to get involved in a very expensive trial. We will tie this up in the court for years at a very great expense. Here have a sneak peak in the board room, just be very quiet, its a brain storming session.
