Is a 'sexless' relationship literally just no sex, or it is more/deeper?

I've had a sexless relationship in terms of no sex with my last LTR from before she became pregnant with our daughter, but I never really considered it meant anything tangible at the time. Looking back I still don't fully understand what 'sexless' means apart from - literally - no sex.

But it is more than that?

Sexless relationships are, no flirting, hit it and quit it... no eye contact... no foreplay, not completely naked,no showers before or after..no landscaping... all natural, and absolutely no oral anything... not even a kiss...
Yup that sounds about right!

@SledgeHammer sex doesn’t guarantee an orgasm though.

@Keepitsimple it does for the guy!

@SledgeHammer Not really if it’s broken, getting hard could be considered the orgasm.

SledgeHammer · 46-50, M

@Keepitsimple broken?
Cant get hard if its broken.
And there is how a sexless relationship is

Keepitsimple · 51-55, F

@SledgeHammer they get semi hard. May not be worth the hassle.

SledgeHammer · 46-50, M

@Keepitsimple I'll take your word on that.... you sound convincing
