Ok, so I don’t feel much sexual attraction to others, but if we’re close enough and they’re very special to me, I won’t mind having sex with them and am pretty open to doing it regardless of feeling attraction or anything like that. The attraction is there, but it feels different.

    Very hard to judge with that context. Not minding sounds just like non-sex repulsed asexual. (going off the fact that you don’t seem to be implying wanting to do so, and haven’t said anything along the lines of “wanting to”.

    IE the real question is would you enjoy having sex with someone, and/or do you even have romantic feelings.

    ace is a huge crazy spectrum, but what I generally hear about is

    aromantic - IE do not feel romantic attraction

    asexual - does not feel a desire to have sex.

    sex repulsed - (this does not appear to apply to you, that’s when you are actually sickened when confronted with sex).

    So without full more detailed view on you, unless your tone of “I don’t mind” is different than what I think of when I hear that. (IE I don’t mind emptying the dishwasher, or taking out the trash).
