But it sounds like you've tried to be fairly honest with this other person. Still, I'll bet the two of you have different long-term expectations. That's apt to lead to somebody getting hurt.

When we discuss the future, we seem to have the same plan. We want the same things (sex being the outlier). But I
am attracted to my S/O. I'm attracted to them emotionally, romantically, and intimately; however I don't find their appearance attractive (I don't think they're
unattractive, but physically, they aren't my type) and I don't experience sexual attraction.
Currently, my S/O says they're fine if we don't have sex, but I'm aware that can change. For now, I'll just discuss things with them further.
