I think I get what you mean, stuff like French kissing for example (as opposed to the sort of "dry kiss" a parent might give a child). I was just asking because whenever it comes to asexuals being in "romantic" relationships the topic of physical closeness comes up and some people seem to see for example cuddling as someone that only happens with a romantic partner but to me for example it's just something that requires a certain level of emotional intimacy, independent of whether that'd be in a relationship or not.

Personally, I do want physical closeness, I'm just not interested in or even averse to anything sexual or erotic. (I want to add that the aversion is because I just somehow don't "get" it, so no past experiences or anything.)
