Could we be together and just … not have sex? I stood there in the doorway trying to picture it. No sex, but still a romance. A relationship. Kissing Jason, holding hands with Jason. Being in love. I’d spent a lot of time thinking about how I felt about love, but not much about having sex—I’d just assumed that sex would automatically be a part of it. But it didn’t have to be. Sunil had told me that some people didn’t want sex, but were perfectly happy in relationships without it.
