I'm (21M) and she's (21F) We've been close for years, met when we were teenagers, and have over time built up to being romantically involved. We go on dates, we cuddle, she stays at my place and we share the bed. We've told each other that we love each other. I've never clicked like this with anybody else in my life. She has told me that she wants to be with me, but she told me around the time we first met that she is asexual, and reiterated that as we've gotten closer. She has made it clearly she doesn't ever want sex.
The thing is I'm not asexual, and I've never been with anybody sexually. If I stay with her I'll never know what it's like to be sexual with somebody. I would never cheat on her, and I want to be with her. Is sex really that big of a deal? Everywhere I look there's such an emphasis on sex. Am I really going to be missing out that much? Is there anyone out there who has been in my situation? Can I stay with her and healthily deal with my sexuality without feeling like I'm missing out? I can't help but feel like there's some shame in remaining a virgin. Some guidance would be strongly appreciated.
tl;dr: She's asexual, I'm not, we want to be together. Can this work?
