[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a sixteen and a half year old son who has never shown interest in dating -- boys or girls. I've broached the subject, because we're open and talk about everything, and he says he's never been attracted to anyone. I told him that I was a late bloomer but long before I ever had my first kiss I imagined it and thought about it and he says he's definitely curious too.  But says he doesn't know whether he's straight, gay or bi -- just chalks it up to never being attracted too someone. We were laughing because I very clearly saw two girls flirting with him this summer and when I brought that up I realized he had absolutely no idea they were flirting. Now, on the one hand, no biggie. I'm happy that as a junior he's just focusing on friends and schoolwork. However, I find it curious because everything I know about teens boys says their hormones are raging at this age. Or is he just a late bloomer? I guess my one worry is this so called rise in these asexual boys because of video games. And whether he's straight or gay,[b] I'd like him to be something. [/b] [/quote]

Why?  Genuine question[/quote]

Why? Because I think life is fuller with a relationship. [/quote]

My asexual DH is in a wonderful relationship and has a very full life.

Chill out. DC will find his way. [/quote]

How’s your relationship with him? Are you asexual as well?[/quote]
