One of my psychiatrists said I am asexual because of my extreme arrogance
I once visited a psychiatrist maybe I was 20 at that time. I desire sex and have had sex with more than 50 men in my life, all hook-ups. I have had sexual encounters with women as well. But I do not feel physically attracted to anyone. I do feel pleasure during sex but I do not feel sexually attracted to any man or woman regardless of how attractive they are.
When I asked my psychiatrist about this, he said that I am extremely arrogant and put myself above the rest of humanity. He said I think being attracted to someone while they are not attracted to me feels like disrespect. He said I have filled my mind with so many ideas of superiority that I protect myself with maladaptive mechanisms. He even said I am narcissistic about my narcissism.
Does it make sense?

Sex-repulsed while being both romantic and sensual definitely causes some problems

Better than Sex: Ace Edition
Living in the world where sex is seen as peak pleasure is odd. I have like a million of things that feel better than sex. Here is my incomplete list in no particular order:
That moment of pure presence
That first sip of a perfectly brewed cup of coffee or tea
Reading a book so good you forget time exists
Ice-cold water when you’re thirsty
Finding forgotten money in an old pocket
Falling down youtube music rabbit holes
Falling down rabbit holes of trailers so good you don’t even care about the movies anymore
A warm hug from someone you love
Laughing till your stomach hurts
All green lights on the way home
Getting into clean sheets after a hot shower
Someone you love remembering the little things
Writing or drawing and losing track of time
Feeling weightless floating on water
Sun on your face on a cold day
Flipping your pillow to the good side
What feels better than sex for you?

Can you trust your partner without wanting to have sex with them?
Bc anytime when i hear abt ppl needing to have sex with partners, they would always say its bc they trust their body with them which i think its okay tbh if you do.
But can it be possible to trust your partner even without wanting to have sex?
Bc ppl put on trust with sex but if i were in a relationship, it would be sexless.
I do this bc i am sex-repulsed, but it doesnt mean that i don’t trust a partner ( if i even have a crush. I don’t even know what i am talking abt ). Or that i don’t love them for not having the same attraction as them
And if i do end up having a partner i don’t want them to misunderstand that. I don’t want them to think that i dont wanna have sex with them bc i dont trust them.
Like… it just feels uncomfortable Especially since i would have to justify that this isnt them reason why. I dont wanna force myself to have sex with them but i also don’t want them to think that i don’t trust them bc of that. I wish there was a way to trust someone without them needing a body to do so.
Like, can there be a way of trusting your partner with your body on not having sex or on not leading to that?
Bc i would totally appreciate it if i dont need to.
