Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health 
An asexual is someone who experiences no sexual attraction. An aromantic asexual experiences no romantic attraction but a romantic asexual experiences romantic attraction. Aromantic asexuals don't want relationships while romantic asexuals want relationships.
I was always a very sexual girl who craves for relationships which is so annoying at times. I honestly envy asexuals so much.
1. I wouldn't need to worry about rejection
It's never a good feeling to be rejected because of your looks and/or personality.
2. I wouldn't need to worry about STDs or an unplanned pregnancy
STDs have been on the rise and it's like you just can't have sex with anyone. I'll never know. My boyfriend could probably cheat on me and then give me an STD. It has happened many times before in other people's relationships.
3. Domestic abuse won't ever happen
People who aren't going to be relationships don't face the possibility of facing this kind of abuse. But thank goodness, I'm not facing this kind of abuse right now.
4. I wouldn't have to worry about getting played
I wouldn't ever get used for sex.
5. No heartbreaks
No relationships = No heartbreaks
6. I wouldn't get left for someone else or get cheated on
Something like this could happen and it's not a good feeling to be in that situation. Betrayal is a horrible feeling. It would suck to know that I wasn't his first choice..
7. I wouldn't be called a slut
That term just wouldn't apply to me at all.
8. I wouldn't be called shallow because of my preferences
That term wouldn't apply to me because if I don't date then I wouldn't be having preferences.
9. There would be more time to myself
I wouldn't have to be so involved with another person and make sacrifices for them. My mind wouldn't think about sex and love. It would think about other important things.
10. No weddings
Weddings are expensive. My sister's wedding will cost thousands of dollars. I don't want a cheap wedding because that would hurt my ego and not having a wedding will hurt my ego too because it just shows that I settled with a man and had kids without having a wedding. If I was asexual, I would never have a wedding which means no added expense. Weddings are also stressful, so what's the point of weddings?
I know there will be at least one person who will try to claim that asexuality is not a valid sexual orientation which is very dismissive and ignorant because you are basically saying that a group of people don't exist and are not valid. Just because you don't believe in something, it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist!

What Girls & Guys Said
12 25A bunch of nothing just taking up space. sounds as if you need greater self asteem, confidence, and a more out going personality.
You have no idea what you are talking about! What does a greater self-esteem, confidence and going out personality have to do with any of the things I listed? Somebody with those traits can still face any of the issues listed above. So this isn't a bunch of nothing just taking up space...
Those are all valid reasons, though, at least for men, I've been called "fag" "pussy" and many other derogatory terms because I refuse sex and don't date. You can still get STDs, though the rate is much lower. Toilettes, drinking bottles, rape, all ways you could potentially get anything sexually transmitted. Disease, infection. Just be careful what you wish for.
Am a romantic demisexual. It's not as fun as you probably think.
i don't care about how you feel
your feelings don't make reality lol
I disagree
It's not as great as you think. Everywhere you go you see images of relationships and sex, it's in advertising, music, on TV and in movies, and it's just a constant reminder of something you will probably never have. I wish I could drool over guys and fantasise about them. I wish I could fall hopelessly and irretrievably in love with someone. I wish I could feel these things that everyone else does, and that everyone hails as being intrinsic to the human experience.
Being an aromantic asexual doesn't mean that you are in a little bubble, safe from heartache and heartbreak. My heart breaks when my friends talk of loneliness, because it shows how my friendship with them doesn't mean as much to them, and makes me fearful that once all my friends are in relationships no one will have time for me. My heart aches when they talk about sex, because I just wish that I could be normal and feel attraction and want to do the things that they do. I want to be interested, I want to crave a relationship and sex and all that, but I just can't.
Don't get me wrong, there are times I'm proud of who and what I am, and at the end of the day I wouldn't change that because it is a major part of me. But it's just so difficult to know that there's a whole part of life I won't ever experience, even if I did get into a relationship, because I wouldn't feel the same things that they would. I don't feel any need to be with another person, or spend my life with anyone, and that's just how it is.
"All love, are loved, save only I: their hearts
Beat warm with love and joy, beat full thereof:
They cannot guess, who play the pleasant parts,
My heart is breaking for a little love "
- Christina Rossetti , L. E. L
I wish that too. :(
Once upon a time, all of us were: as children. Now, however... :'(
Sure it would be convenient at times and probly make you more productive?
But you can't just chose to be asexule!
Actually you can, look at Varys and the Unsullied from Game of Thrones, the are asexual to, everyone can become asexual with physical and/or castration. :)

@Berethor Ok i stand corrected you can but that's still rather one way for me! I only want to try it if that where possible to get more work done. I would want a sex drive again when it comes to relationships or when i'm feeling under less pressure!
I'm an aromatic asexual.
But I feel inhuman for being the way I am...
And rightfully so, Liches are aromatic asexuals as well, but at least they got immortally in exchange for that, so it might worth it in their case. :)
I wouldn't want to be asexual especially without knowing what it's like first hand but if it was possible to try it temporarily I would. Getting aroused when you want to be getting work done can be really really annoying especially for guys where it can be rather obvious. It seems like it would at least make you more productive!
@sedrftvgyhujik it's good if you want to focus more on work, but it's bad for relationship, or in other words, asexually is good only for singles, and not for people in relationship.
@Berethor I am single so it would be a good thing short term to help me get more done! As you said I wouldn't want it if I got in a relationship though.
I have a small penis, so I honestly wish I was aromantic asexual. I could technically "castrate" myself by not taking my hormone replacement therapy, but then I'd feel 100 times worse in every other way (physically/mentally). So I'm stuck being frustrated...
Just pretend it's a clit and have fun with ur penis
@gagfrenzy2 It's not THAT small...
Being a sexually repulsive man I wish I was asexual as well.
:'(
Yep, I know what you mean, very good mytake.
Number 7 is outright stupid. to even be considered a concern to be asexual.
Hi! I am a romantic asexual and I'd just like to say it's a great feeling loving someone. Rejection is something everyone goes through. It's completely worth it finding someone you love to be with.
Being romantic asexual it's the hardest in most cases, as most men would reject asexual woman, and even if asexual woman find a man, it's usually not for a long time.
I hear you, but i'd much rather have those feelings. Life feels more special with them
what kind of feelings?
Feelings of love. I know the dating world out there can be intimidating and so many people get their hearts broken, but when i eventually found the man that loved me, everyday has been so amazing. I feel attached to him and i wish i could describe it to you... its just sublime when its with the right person. Don't give up hope :)
I know feelings of love outweigh all the negatives. I just got into a relationship but I'm still not sure if he's the right person. I'm just hoping my heart doesn't get broken.
I can understand what you mean, and i had my heart broken twice. Its a real roller coaster of emotions. Its okay to love, just don't let it get out of control. Nobody knows if its the right person. Anything can happen, even in my relationship, things can turn. You just have to embrace each day as it comes.
