Am i asexual or something else
I used to have porn addiction to certain type of videos and i remember at one point being sexually addicted to a porn video during middle school. But i had fantasies of my friends from middle school and had sexual arousal, porn addiction induced a lot of fantasies i think like porn addiction made it occur more and stronger when i saw my friends i had fantasies about in high school like when i was 16 i saw my old friend i have not saw in long time got aroused. I feel that excitement to those friends. In high school freshman year i had arousal to a few girls but not for long and i found this beautiful lady when i was 15 or 14 she was older grade i had physical attraction to her and romantic but not sexually excited at all. Im thinking why cant i not get sexually excited to new people in my school but i can get aroused to porn videos. Am i asexual or demisexual or something else or weird and crazy what do you think.

Maybe you see that girl as something more than just a sexual object, you see her as a human you can emotionally connect with? You don't need to put a label on anything or yourself. You're still young, things change and what may have interested you years before, may not when you're older.

I'm also addicted to pornography (trying to stop for a while), and I also suspected being asexual.
If you still see pornography, I suggest stopping for a while and seeing what persists.
Pornography is an external stimulus, it becomes harder to look into yourself and know who you really are.
This is just my suggestion, I hope it is useful to you.
@FreedomHawk as a asexual do you get aroused or romantic fantasies at all.

I did not quite understand your comment.
I'm a 22 year old man, I've never been in love, I tried several times to feel something for girls who were in love with me, I liked them as people, but nothing more.
I currently have a girlfriend, and we have an active sex life, but I do not feel very good during the act, but I do not see any problem doing that for her.
I get excited about pornography, and I have a foot fetish, but I do not feel aroused by the bodies of real women.
@FreedomHawk i feel romantic attraction for girls i can see i have something for like an attachment but not sexual arousing physically.
@tallHemlock5534 You're a romantic-asexual. I should be in the grey-area.
