I dated a guy who has a low libido while I'm pretty high libido. Tbh, it was probably the best relationship I had and I think he was HV because of being sort of asexual. He didn't care about getting sex so he never chased women for superficial or short-term gains. He only pursued people he genuinely liked, was extremely confident and not dependent on sexual validation to feel worthy as a man. He also put a lot of his energy in other pursuits and skills, which made him extremely capable.

I'd probably date him again, if we could negotiate an open relationship or something like it. Guys benefit and achieve personal growth from not being sex-obsessed. This can either happen naturally (being asexual/low libido), or if their sexual needs are met in a relationship and they don't have a sex addiction.
