questions about asexuality
hi everyone, i’m not asexual myself, however my partner is. i have a few questions regarding it so i can understand it better (we’ve had a few discussions, but i figured i should get some outside perspective as well)
my partner hasn’t been sexually active before our relationship, i think. but, we’ve had sex before, multiple times, where we’ve both initiated. they say that they get turned on by thoughts of me, have sexual fantasies (dreams and such), and they enjoy our sex.
my understanding of asexuality is that it’s the lack of sexual attraction (my partner identifies as purely asexual), so i’m just confused about their desire for me in that way, and i’m just hoping to get some perspectives from their community! i love them very much and im hoping i can understand them better through this
