#asexuality

I'm a 44-year-old man and I've been married to a 45-year-old woman for the past 15 years. About six years ago, she told me that she was basically done with sex. While we have had sex maybe 10 times or so since then, her statement has been essentially true. She was never particularly sexual anyway (she never communicated about likes/dislikes, fantasies, masturbation, etc.) and didn't feel like physical intimacy was important to her.

Yes, some asexual people masturbate. What distinguishes asexuals is that they lack sexual attraction, meaning they don’t desire to have sex with specific people.
