This is really common for HOCD. There are many reasons why you may feel like your losing your normal attraction to guys , like by trying to hard to like them to the point where it’s unnatural. Just like when you try hard not to be attracted to the same sex , that’s gonna make you feel like you are. It could also be a loss of energy from being so drained because of the anxiety. But still , you should accept what you see as the worst possibility and get acquainted with your fears. That’s how they lose their power over you. You could start by asking yourself why you fear what you fear , and how it would change your life if it were true. You’ll come to realize that you’re perspective is making the fear worse than it needs to be

Not really, but I obsess about that since more than a year. I started noticing flaws that I had never seen on the faces of girls I was attracted to, finding them a lot less attractive and then it spread to all the girls. Since then I wonder if it will come back and I make compulsions, but nothing come back (probably because I'm very obsessed with it and it's the only HOCD fear I have) Do not worry, it will come back ;)

@katia omg yes! Seriously I have literally been thinking the last few days that I might be asexual (but also in the back of my mind still obsessing about being gay?) !! So happy you feel like this because I don’t know what’s going on!! So happy you said that. And also yes about it coming back in short periods of time, like for example last night I was watching a tv show and I found the guy really attractive and I was so happy and then when the show finished I felt all horrible and weird again.

Me. I’ve started to feel really anxious at the thought of it as well and I never used to? I don’t know what’s going on, I don’t know if this is a symptom of OCD or if it’s real life.

Why do i feel like with hocd i look way more at girls than at boys. My eyes are just focused on girls these days i completely forgot about boys at this point. I hate it but when i see a pretty girls its like i must look while i never had that before. It makes me feel like im jusr attracted hut wont admit it. Its crazy because sometimes when guys stared at me im like why are they looking? Because i never understood but my mom said its just a guy thing they always look at girls. And now i feel like i “opened” my eyes and now i “see” the attractiveness in girls too. I hate it like now i look at pretty girls too and im like i never did this before. I dont unferstand its not like i want to be with them i just look ever since hocd. I always used to question myself like what do guys see in girls? I always thiught guys were cute snd then thought do they really feel this same warm feelings forgirls too? Like girls are boring and idk why u would be attracted to them. But now hocd come up and i try to force the feelings i felt for boys on girls and i feel like is real but it doestn feel anything like the feelings i had for boys so i just call it fake attraction towards girls. Ugh so complex

Anyone with HOCD lost their attraction to men yet???? My anxiety is clouding my perception. Dudes/DILFS I used to think were hot asf are now unattractive to me. My anxiety is really clouding my judgement. It caused me to have a panic attack today ?

i always used to want a bf soo bad and i would get so jealous and kinda sad when i saw guys being cute with their girlfriends and now i don’t even care. like i’m not interested in anyone. and it scares me bc i didn’t lose my attraction bc i still see guys and i’m like omg he’s so cute and stuff but then i ask myself if i would date him and i can’t see myself dating him. and it makes me think i don’t actually like boys. and the guy i had liked for yearssss and wanted to be close with so bad, i don’t have feelings for him anymore. anyone else with hocd have this? you still have the physical attraction but you don’t want a relationship. it’s freaking me out
