Romantic relationships are a kind of close relationships that are socially understood to be based on concepts of sexual attraction and sexual intimacy, which differentiates them from other kinds of close relationships such as friendships. Given that the identity of asexual people is marked by the lack of sexual attraction and sexual desire for other people, it is worth to explore how does a group of people, whose identity leaves out one of the fundamental elements of a romantic relationship, relate to those relationships. The aim of this research was to examine the desire of asexual individuals for a romantic relationship and the way in which they define romantic relationships while also paying attention to the differences between experiences of aromantic asexual individuals, who do not feel romantic desire towards other people, and asexual individuals of other romantic orientations. The data was obtained using an open-ended questionnaire in English, that was posted on social media sites with significant asexual population. The research found a passive interest in most of the asexual individuals, who considered relationships to be something positive but not essential for a fulfilling life, mostly expressing an attitude of being open for a potential relationship, no lacking interest to actively seek it. Romantic relationships were mostly defined as monogamous, although there was also a lean towards polygamous and queerplatonic relationships, and they were marked by an emotional closeness and loyalty between partner, also emphasizing the importance of independence as well as the ability to lean on to a partner. A difference in answers given by aromantic respondents and those given by asexual respondents of other romantic orientation was also found, where in forming their answers aromantic respondents seemed more analytical and emotionally distant from the subject of study, considering romantic relationships less important for fulfilment of their lives, and less pleasant and desirable while also expressing greater preferences for platonic relationships such as friendships or family ties.
