There are legitimately asexual people in the world--my best friend is one of them. I don't know why people seem to have such a difficult time accepting that there are people out there who aren't attracted to other people in a romantic/sexual context. I can't speak for the girl mentioned in the secret--perhaps it was an excuse, perhaps not, I don't know and I don't care to guess. But your comment (anonymous, no less) comes off as extremely ill-informed to my mind.
