Between being with the love of your life and being financially secure etc .. but no sex or intimacy.
Or sex with multiple people, living alone and no love?

I’ve had both. I left my love because after 5 years he admitted to being asexual and I couldn’t carry on without the intimacy. I don’t have the life I did then, but I’m happy being independent and single.
I truly believe there will always be love. You just need to be hopeful! |

I just can't picture being with the love of my life and not having sex. For me the two are mutually exclusive. (Not counting the love of your life developing some illness where they couldn't of course as that's a different matter) |

It’s taken some very expensive counselling to help me get over a lack of intimacy, however my other half is perfectly happy with it.
Depends how you feel about it but people can be alarming different |

First option if it included family or not having family contact if making the break. |

"My cynical view is that the majority of "singles" on here aren't choosing.
"
That’s probably true, although for me your list would have to include the financial security of my partner and also the happiness of my kids.
That’s a much more difficult one to answer. |

I’m with the love of my life. I’d give up every penny just to stay with her.
I could live without the sex if I had to. The intimacy is intricate in who we are as a couple. |

How do you measure happiness? Having lived without sex or any kind of sexual intimacy but with financial security for over 20 years I now have an ex who is my best friend and a realisation that the need for financial security over inflated. I might be bit skint from time to time but I'm much happier. |

Would your partner be happy if she knew you were cheating on her? |

I'll join the ranks of others on here who have already endured option one and found it intolerable... the love just wilts without watering it with regular intimacy.
I don't like the second option though. So, even though I'm going to have to take it in this hypothetical scenario, I'd put a positive spin on it. I may not find love with another woman, but I'm going to love myself and this beautiful life I'm living |

Asexual how? Like no sex drive or no interest? |

I don't think it's a choice if you're in a relationship with no intimacy whatsoever. It's an empty and very painful existence if you love that person. You reach a point when separation is the only way to resolve the pain. |
