*huge picture*

That girl looks more like a 12 year old Asian boy than a woman. Definitely going to say I'd rather not look at, fantasize about, OR bang her in real life. But then again, I've never been diagnosed with the yellow fever.

Actually, that's exactly what's happening in Japan right now. It's a HUGE issue...

With that said, regardless of whether I dated or was interested in sex or not...no kids for me, ever. In terms of financial/social/emotional burden, kids are obviously on a whole different level from relationships. And considering my stance on relationships...

For some people it's worth it, and in all seriousness more power to them. As little as I understand the desire to have children, I have a lot of respect for people who are willing to make that kind of personal sacrifice...and actually do it responsibly, mind you. This sounds a little sappy, but it warms my heart to actually see good parents in my store. Such a rarity...

If it helps, that picture is from quite a while ago (same for my avatar - size limits, and my lack of skill with picture editing, forced me to just find whatever picture would fit size limits that wasn't compressed to hell...and honestly, my avatar still kinda is haha). She looks a little different now.

...inb4 "she looks the same"

CatchFiveBats,

You seem like a really good guy and there is merit in your argument that what you do is no one's business as long as no one is getting hurt. However, I've read your posts here and in the world traveling thread and as someone who spent more than a few years in questionable ways I can't help but offer this bit of unsolicited advice: This is bad craziness. Reverse course, ASAP.

Take care.

Guess some guys never grow out of it. You know all those great things you want to do with your life? If you do it right, your partner helps. They make the bad times more bearable, the work go quicker, and the good times are so much better when shared. You can pretend you're above sex or whatever makes you feel better if you want. But I hope you figure it out someday.

BTW, I'm with you on the marriage and kids thing. But long-term monogamy is awesome. Even makes you live longer.

Dude it's a natural need. It's like saying I don't need water, I can get what nutrients I need from fruit. (How many watermelons would you need to eat to get a day's worth of water anyway?)

Believe me I've felt that need since freaking 10, it's impossible to fight it. And highly unhealthy.

It may be a natural need for you, but one must understand it is simply not a natural need for everyone. Everyone's experience is uniquely different, that's part of the interesting mystery that makes us all who we are.

I wish someone would support me from another country and never expect any sex or talking in return. Perhaps I should become a Japanese pop idol. At least one forum member here (AznKhmerBoi) thinks I look asian enough.

I don't see why everyone is so insistent on telling CatchFiveBats that he ought to be in a long-term monogamous relationship. I'm a married guy, and I love it, but some people are just meant to be single. There's a lot to be said for it. If he changes his mind later that's fine. Maybe he'll be going about his business, enjoying his singleness and he'll meet someone who makes him change his mind. If so, great. If not, great. But I think that seeking out a relationship for the sake of having a relationship is a recipe for misery.

Also, CatchFiveBats, if you're planning on teaching English in Japan, being happily single is a great idea. You probably won't be able to support a family on what they'll pay you.

This post gives the impression that you are a slave to your urges.

This.
And I personally think the same stands for relationships.

I will say, to the guys who offered me advice (which, in all seriousness, thank you for your concern)...I'm sure if I were to give dating a serious shot and found the right person, it would be amazing. Maybe some day off in the future it'll happen. I've had a LOT of people confront me about this, close friends included (obviously they were some of the first), and have done some serious thought as to whether or not this is the right thing for me. And the conclusion I came to is...right now, this is what comes naturally to me and this is what makes me happy and I wouldn't change it for the world.

Hey, I've talked to her...a couple times...for a few seconds...

Yeah, that's definitely been one of the factors in my decision to remain single. I wouldn't want to find a person I care about and then not be able to support them because the lifestyle I've chosen doesn't allow it (whether that be financially or in terms of my ability to balance interests and their needs). I've also developed a love for traveling over the last couple years, and my plans to disappear from where I live for extended periods of time wouldn't exactly do wonders for a relationship.

I wasn't going to just come out and say this, but that's certainly what I've been thinking. Sex isn't a bad thing, but it can certainly become one.
