    Sure. If I developed a relationship with an asexual individual, I would be fine with it. Sex isn't a big thing for me and doesnt have a big role in my life.
    Most relationships that I've possibly thought of going into never went into the sexual arena, I mostly entertained thoughts of just hugging them or holding their hand.

    So yeah. As long as we got something going strong emotionally then bedroom stuff isn't required. I've always seen my pleasure as something personal anyway.

    I've never had sex before, but judging from my fantasies and stuff, I probably wouldn't. Unless I'm completely wrong about how I feel about sex and I turn out to not like it at all, no. Nothing against asexual people, but I wouldn't feel comfortable doing it if my partner was bored or not enjoying it, as I'm sure most people would be.

    Yes please!

    I'm actually chatting with one... he's so fun and cute and all that...

    Lives in like, the other end of the universe.

    I wish more people were asexual, would make, finding someone who is not interested only in your body, so much easier.

    No. I don't need a lot of sex but now and then, it's nice :slight_smile: My biggest issue though is that I would feel guilty if I wanted to have sex and my partner did not. I would feel like I was forcing them to have sex,even if they offered to have sex with me, simply because I know that they don't like sex.

    Yes I could deal with this, so long as this partner would help me with my desires even if he does not want to do anything himself.

    Although sex is not the most important thing for me in a relationship (companionship and romance is), I wouldn't because I want to experience sex. Maybe I will someday and decide it's overrated, who knows. For now this is how I feel about it.

    I've been thinking about this SO much as well and I have no idea how to 'fix' this. Only time will tell.

    I wouldn't mind dating an asexual. But both of us need to respect each others sexuality and if he doesn't mind kissing, cuddling and spooning that would be more than perfect for me.

    I theory, I would date an asexual. I value romance very much. If I desire sex and the person doesn't want to, it might become a little problem, but I'm not sure about that.

    That being said, I don't want to date anyone currently. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Well, I plan on never having sex a day in my life, so sure. But they'd have to at least be somewhat intimate, like cuddling, kissing, hand holding, hugging, etc..

    I have to say it depends ,If we hit it off and really like each other sure !! Yes I have a extremly high sex drive but there are ways to "relieve" presure lol I feel that you cant base a relashonship on sex if you do it will fail sooner or later and that is good for nobody!

    Relationship and romantic love very closely related to sex for me. So if I couldn't have sex with that indivudal, he would be my friend... just like my female friends.

    You wouldn't call meetings between friends a date, yes?

    When reduced sex drive is causing tension in my current relationship? It would be hard. I'm not entirely certain how I'd make it work, and I'd feel guilty about it if I cared for them too.
