Sexual anorexia: Is loss of appetite for romantic sexual interaction. It is the fear of intimacy to the point that one has severe anxiety surrounding sex with emotional content (in intimate relationship ). These people have sex addiction which is expressed in variety of ways such as compulsive use of strip clubs, prostitutes, cyber porn sites. They do not have aversion to sex but to intimacy.
