Apologies is this is a silly question, I'm a pretty late bloomer (~35) but I've never dated or really interacted with women much.

I'd like to experience a relationship so I came here to learn how to do so, but I am not interested in the sexual side of a dating. A lot of the advice seems to be about making every situation "sexually charged" or something but since I don't have an interest in sex I don't want to steer the interaction in a direction it will never go.

Do these tips work even without all the sex stuff? All I want out of this is really casual dating, maybe with sex at some point down the line but not as something soon.
