To think a sexless relationship can work long term

Relatively sexless. Perhaps twice per year ? Even if baby has been conceived ?
One partner disinterested in sex generally and the other has a strong libido.

Yes it can work if both partners have low libidos or little interest in sex.

With one person with a high libido, twice a year is just not going to work long term. I don't even consider myself particularly high libido and twice a year would be divorce territory for me.

Of course not

Definitely not. Not unless it's open for the one with a libido.

I think it generally only works if you both have low sex drives

I disagree.

I think it can only work if both have low libido or are asexual.

Nope.
