A-sexual, yes!
A study done on rams found that about 2% to 3% of the individuals being studied had no apparent interest in mating with either sex. Another study was done on rats and gerbils, in which up to 12% of the males showed no interest in females. Their interactions with other males were not measured, however, so the study is of limited use when it comes to asexuality.
A UK survey of sexuality included a question on sexual attraction, and 1% of respondents replied that they had "never felt sexually attracted to anyone at all." The Kinsey Institute conducted a small survey on the topic, which concluded that "asexuals appear to be better characterized by low sexual desire and sexual excitation than by low levels of sexual behavior or high sexual inhibition". That study also mentions a conflict regarding the definition of "asexual": the researchers found four different definitions in the literature, and stated that it was unclear whether those identifying as asexual were referring to an orientation.

dont worry your just not finding anyone in your current area that you find interesting enough to find attractive. most ppl go thru phases where they arent interested in anybody bc they havent found anyone of interest both physically and mentally. Hang in there and dont fret about it. when the right person comes along your interest will get sparked. You just have standards and interest that no one is meeting right now and thats not a bad thing. stick to your likes and dislikes and dont comparmise on them and you'll have better dating experiences than if you just give in to anyone just to be dating. Mean while enjoy your singlehood. Have fun go out with the gals bc eventally you'll find yourself to wraped up in someone and hanging with them wont seem as imporant as it does now.

Yep, it's called asexuality. An asexual experiences no sexual attraction at all to anyone.

Yes. Some people are attracted to no one -- they are asexual. Others are attracted only to themselves -- they are narcissists.

That would be called asexual and yes, it is possible. Some people are just not into sex. Nothing wrong with that.

Yeah. My friend is like that - she has never found herself attracted to men OR women. At first I figured it might be hormonal, but no, she's grown just like you'd expect - boobies, curves, periods, all that stuff. She's just not attracted to anyone!

Yes, but I also think that at sometime in your life, that will change.

They are rather nice people but many people find them peculiar or think that they are dishonest just because they don't get turned on.
