Gay Redditors describe the times they had non-sexual relationships
Asexuality is a very real thing, as we all know by now. But as you’ll see below, gay couples opt not to have sex for any number of reasons.In Reddit’s r/AskGayMen forum, one user recently asked, “Have any of you had a completely non-sexual relationship?
