I think it's a completely different set of issues to want something but be afraid to get it so you don't get it vs. not wanting something so you don't get it.

I don't take it an attack at all.
You're right, celibacy is a choice. But so is fear to a degree. A person is entirely responsible for their own actions, health, and happiness.
Thus far I've chosen not to do anything about my situation. I guess sex just isn't important enough.
Lack of sex doesn't trouble me at all. Lack of companionship plays on my mind from time to time. But I think it's only natural we all crave that sometimes. But it's letting someone get close enough is where the fear comes in. I'm so used to living by myself and not being accountable to anyone that the idea of being in a relationship seems almost foreign to me.
