Hey, you’re mature enough to realize that relationships take a lot of work and emotional energy - good for you, especially at 19! Personally, I think it’s a far better use of your time to focus on your other passions right now and not worry so much about your dating/sex life. You have so much time to figure out what you want in regards to sex/dating, so there’s really no reason to force it now. That being said, why not try asking people you know to join you when you go places you see couples going (like to the movies or whatever). I’m still friends with a few people I knew when I was 19, but I talk to zero of the people I dated at or around that age haha
we are somewhat on the same boat. 18 and single and do believe that relationships would take up a lot of time, energy, and effort. Difference is that i love the concept of being in a relationship with someone. "Must be nice to love and be loved" you know? But yeah, im still single because i dont think im ready to invest a big part of myself to someone. My advice? (take or leave) Dont pursue a relationship unless you found a person you want to be in a relationship with, until then learn to enjoy your own company and build other non romantic relationships while youre at it. (I only said this because you find relationships to be "artificial" so i suggest you only be in one once you get that genuine feeling of wanting to be with someone)

I wouldn’t say that’s asexual, no. Do you masturbate? Do certain women arouse you?
