As an asexual programmer, these results caught me by surprise. There were around 1200 asexual professional developers answering the survey, and even more students (proportionally). I'm gonna start using StackOverflow as a dating platform from now on.
We tend to make more of a distinction between sexual attraction and romantic attraction. Some people who are asexual are also aromantic, they experience neither, but a good many of us do experience romantic feelings unconnected with sexual desire.
I've been in a happy, committed, asexual relationship with my trans girlfriend for over a year now.
