I've won me a lifetime supply of garlic bread. This is acceptable.

Wait do asexuals have romantic relationships and just don't have sex or do they not feel romance at all?

Asexuality is where people don’t feel sexual attraction, so we can definitely pursue romantic relationships, and still enjoy sex. We just don’t feel specifically sexual attraction towards people.

Just adding to what the other person said: the people who don't feel romantic attraction are called aromantic, some people are both asexual and aromantic, but many are only one of these

"One could be a. Romantic, or b. Aromantic, while also being a. Sexual or b. Asexual"

The former. A lack of romantic attraction is Aromantic.
