is it possible dark matter is a type of matter that can interact with matter and antimatter without having annihilation?

kind of like the neutral force of the universe.

i know its kind of a weird question but what do you all think?

At the present time physicists do not know of any interactions (except elastic scattering) between dark matter and ordinary matter (or antimatter).
