Possible to enjoy sex while being asexual?
Title sounds a bit contradictory but hear me out yall.
Im an asexual guy. In all honesty I shouldve realized it in high school and college when my thoughts around my classmates were "why does dating and sex matter so much? their parents are probably really strict/religious and theyre rebelling"
Anyway, back to the reason for the post. I dont really care for sex, nor do I look at someone and feel like I want to have sex with them. I can do it but the act gives me the same personal level of gratification as starting my car.
However, I feel as though I enjoy the idea of pleasuring my partner. Like, I dont really get anything for myself but Im into doing what I can to make my partner feel good or have a good time and that gives me motivation to have any type of sexual activity. I dunno if that makes sense but I was curious about what this subreddit thinks because seeing myself as asexual is relatively new to me.
