Sexual Assault Sexual Abuse Has Ruined My Ability To Enjoy My Sexuality

I figure sex is ruined for me. I guess I've had consensual sex twice in my life, although once was coerced. The time that wasn't coerced I dissociated through and don't remember. Maybe it was ok, I don't know. I think that part of me is too broken to fix. And I know that's probably not the right attitude, but I can't change my mindset.
 
No guy wants anything to do with you unless sex is an option. That is, a man's perogative for getting into a relationship is mainly the sex.

To say a man's prerogative for getting into a relationship is mainly the sex, is about as accurate as saying a woman's prerogative for getting Ito a relationship is mainly the money. True for some? Sure. Most? Not hardly.
 
Sex is an important part to any relationship. It's just the only focus for a good relationship. There are many facets to any relationship. But, many men do need sex, and it's a huge part of the relationship for them. i just think, and this is my opinion that sex is important in a relationship. I'm not interested in having sex anymore, so to start a relationship with someone would be IMO, deceitful. That's why I'm single.
 
I've never met a man who is ok with not having sex.

I've known a few. But there's a difference between someone not being okay being in a sexless relationship, or being in a companionate marriage... And having sex be the main reason why one is getting into relationships.

It's the exact same thing as most women are going to want to date a man who is either gainfully employed or has an income source... But aren't dating men primarily for their money.

And, quite frankly, the inverse holds true, as well. Most women don't want companionate marriages (at least not from day 1), nor do most men want to be the sole source of income (ditto). But individuals always differ.

Do most people want sex in their relationships? Yes.
Do most people want money in their relationships? Yes.
Does either mean that's the only reason to be in a relationship? Not for most.
Does either mean that all relationships have sex or money? Nope. Some people will place a high value on one or the other, others will place a low value on it.

Sex & Finances are only 2 components of a relationship. For some they're big important pieces. For others, middling, and others couldn't care less. That's part of the whole dating schtick. Lining up what each person values. Seeing where people are compatible, and where they're not.

Whatever.

Society sees me as worthless on both fronts. I think I have a right to complain as I'm here through no fault of my own, have little opportunity for changing either, and hate that my primary value is in f*cking and money.

People suck. Society sucks.

Hated and isolated but don't kill yourself because that's wrong.

I hate the world.

I hate the world.

I don't see you as worthless. I don't know you, and I am part of society...

Who told you that your primary value is in sex and money?

Seems you are judging yourself rather harshly! If some people treated you as if your value were only in those two things then, that says a lot about those people and not about you.

I also wanted to add that hating the world is not going to do much to make ya feel better, imho.
 
Whatever.

Sorry you feel let down right now . It's hard to see otherwise. I have suffered through a lot of sexual abuse, but l still feel l have my own value in life and l refuse to let society push me around to fit some screwball Hollywood notion. Right now l qualify for crazy old cat lady or promiscuous cougar, and l am neither of these. My value is not wrapped up in sexuality. @foreveralone2099 ,on the other hand, embrace your silicone partner because it will never lie or cause fights with you or forget your anniversary.
