It certainly does not. I think of my own asexuality in this way:
One: However I feel about the physical sensations of sex,* those feelings are not "sparked" or intensified by the involvement of other people.
Two: And the feelings I have for other people -- my sense of connection and care for them -- are not strengthened or made more important by the inclusion (or expectation) of sex.
*(I happen to be aegosexual, and happen to enjoy it -- as a solo activity, but it's not an enjoyment I'd plan my future life around; "Cake" is a stereotypical ace metaphor because it's apt)
