i only feel sexual attraction towards my partners, and they have to be sexual first. if they’re not sexual people, i only feel romance to them and no sexual feelings. i frankly don’t wanna bang anyone and have never felt like actually doing so until i met my partner, and even then, it’s more out of curiosity and romantic sparks than anything else (i’m super romantic so i’m not aromantic).

i only feel sexual feelings under certain circumstances, and even then, i use it to make myself happy and not really wanting to have sex with someone.

i am sure i feel sexual attraction, like probably towards my partner, but i’d say less so than most people do, perhaps???

i’m demisexual for now which is on the ace spectrum.

I feel like this describes me and I call myself demisexual, I'm only attracted to people who are attracted to me after years of pursuing people who hurt me for wanting them.

    That's a bit different than demi. For them, sexual attraction doesn't happen unless they feel a strong emotional connection. Whether or not the other person displays attraction towards them is mostly irrelevant (my wife is demi)

    A more accurate label would be Reciprosexual.
