ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

asexual

Asexuality is when someone does not feel any sexual attraction to other people. Asexual people don't feel like they need to have a partner or sexual relationship, and they don't get crushes on other people. They can still form close and loving relationships with friends or family without feeling sexual desire for them. Some asexual people still have romantic relationships, but there is no sexual attraction or activity involved.
