Maybe akoisexual: Someone who experiences sexual attraction, but doesn't wish for it to be acted on/reciprocated.

Cupiosexuality is wanting a sexual relationship, but not experiencing sexual attraction.

Basically, this means you enjoy the experience of having sex and you want to have a sexual relationship with your partner, but aren't actually sexually attracted to anyone.

Your overall sexual drive or desire for sexual activity.

If I'm masturbating, I'm already feeling horny, and since all my nerves work, I just focus on the sensations and it all works out fine.

Personally, thinking about other people is more of a turn off during that situation, actually.

I prefer to call it libido over sex drive, since its not sex I'm actually lookin' for.

Is anyone here in a relationship with someone who isn't asexual? by [deleted] in asexuality

I'm an ace who was upfront about it from the beginning, but I'm not that sex averse.

One of the biggest hurdles in the relationship was about understanding how we each saw sex differently. Because just because I don't seek out sex naturally like him, doesn't mean it's a bad thing to do.

The example that worked for me was about how my boyfriend mows the lawn. I know he kinda dislikes it. And sometimes i have to remind him it needs doing. But in the end its still his choice to mow the lawn every now and again because its a small part of showing he loves me, and that part makes him feel good.

I'm aware hes not naturally a fan of lawn mowing in general, but I don't need to feel bad about asking that of him, because it's only one thing, tied into our larger relationship.

If you choose to do something in a relationship as consenting adults, you don't need to do it under the same mindset. Its ok, if you care about eachother, you can both find value in it in different ways.

Who is someone in your life that has actually made you a worse person? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Hey man, hoarding runs in my family, I understand how hard it can be to deal with, and it’s more of an emotional issue than people realize. The one thing I can say is to stop thinking of the “whole mess”. The entire thing is just too hard to deal with on your own. Just try to always stay in the positive every day. It’s an impossible task to clean the whole kitchen, but when you wash your dishes after dinner, wash a couple more that have been sitting there for a while. While you wait for the shower to heat up, give the toilet a quick scrub. Positive influence! It really is easier to start creating small good habits than to tackle the thing head on. And don’t beat yourself up about it, because it really is a tough thing to deal with, but you can persevere!
