Am I asexual if I genuinely prefer cuddling to sex most of the time? It's something that torpedoed my last relationship, to the point that she wanted me to watch porn to "get comfortable with having sex" ( she was also into CNC and wanted me to make advances randomly. That's how I learned what that meant, and I felt pressured to be really assertive when I didn't want to be).
It's not that I'm adverse to sex, I just think its something I don't see as the ultimate point of a relationship. She often said there's no difference between friends and partners other than sex, which I disagree with deeply since I feel like a gf is someone you're willing to trust much more than a friend. She also once insinuated that cuddling was "childish" which really hurt. What isn't childish then, rape porn?
Ultimately all this is why we broke up, she thinks I should work on my sex problem but in all honesty I feel like I don't have one as much as just wanting something different? Idk
