homo-romantic asexual

Alright, so here is my delima when one reads the term asexual it seems to spark a lot of confusion. So he is genderless? Does not masturbate? Hates sex? Ect. However neither of that is the case. It basically means I lack sexual desire but long for a romantic connection with men. I'm starting to feel very alone, not being able to connect with anyone of similar preference. I'm sure there must be people out there like me. Anyway my question is when or if you hear the term asexual/homo romantic what are your thoughts, do you avoid said person or would you consider a possible relation?
