I would say it’s just fine to have characters in a story, or a whole story that is completely uninterested in finding love for whatever reasons.

I think to a certain extent dividing and sub-dividing the question of romance and sexuality isn’t necessary. It’s only been in recent years (relatively speaking) that people have searched so hard to try and find a label for every aspect of human sexuality.

What I’m trying to say (“trying” is a good word for me, lol) is that maybe this question isn’t something you need to worry about in your story. I would advise you to just write your characters however they want to be written, and does it really matter if you call them “asexual” or “not interested”? Maybe they’re just content with continence.

Ooff, yeah. I feel you as far as Myra goes. That would be tricky. Research, care, and prayer would all be good approaches. Talking to people who have experienced it or something similar to it would also be helpful, though I can understand if you don’t want to for obvious reasons.

Also, on a totally unrelated note: Do you recognize these lyrics? I’m learning a song and I thought of you. This is verse one:

Bimse buan ar buairt gach lo,
Ag caoi gi crya is ag touar na ndeor
Mar scaoileadh uaim an buachaill beo
us ba ruinhtar tuairisc uaidh, mo bhron
