[MENTION=38365]Shadow Play[/MENTION], aw, I really appreciate you sharing what you did, with how uncomfortable I know it can be to share things like that. (Sharing vulnerable things in public is very uncomfortable for me, too.)
For what it's worth, what you describe might just be you being very much 5sp. Sx can be toward things: being hooked by something, 'turned on' energetically. It's possible to be asexual and have sx, for instance. Especially with 5, it's not going to be dropping walls and being psychologically nude with just anyone.
Thanks?
I mainly emphasised the intimacy aspect in my previous post, but intensity isn't something I long for, either. I've abstained my entire life from drugs and alcohol because I want to stay in control of my faculties, and not allow myself to be consumed by the chemical rush from getting high. The closest I get to being "turned on" in the way you describe is being a tad obsessive about my interests or getting engrossed in a project. That's not something specific to instinctual variants, though.
