It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who likes to be able to describe myself accurately with lots of nice words.

"I find the common definition of asexual as, "someone who doesn't want to have sex with anyone" somewhat problematic, since nothing stops asexuals from wanting and even enjoying sex. " (sorry, I don't know how to use the quote function)
Although sex is not something that I wish to 'do', I have wanted to have it with someone. I wanted it as some hypothetical thing I thought people needed to do to have to 'truly' have a real relationship. I wanted the idea, not the reality of a sexual relationship.
I can see how someone can want actual (not hypothetical) sex without experiencing sexual attraction. I have not yet encountered a situation in which I have felt someone is wrong in how they self identify. I hope this helps somehow.
I'm stumbling over these concepts because my range of experience is very limited (I apologize for this ignorance, I'm working on it)

"I wanted the idea, not the reality of a sexual relationship. I really resonate with this idea. Sex sounds great in my head, but then the reality of it is just...bleh.
