Basically… the old school way of dating.. before everything became a hookup

I dated a demisexual girl for a year. We didn’t do anything sexual for 5 months into the relationship

like just for context this means sex probably won't happen within the first few months if dating

like ig to explain it a bit better i don't find anyone attractive physically/sexually until i have a deep connection with them. i can obviously recognize objectively attractive people but im not gonna be personally attracted to anyone until that deep connection happens.

Yeah.. for most of human history that’s called being a normal person. It’s only in the age of labeling everything that they had to make a word for that.

There’s a difference between attraction and wanting to have sex, demi means people literally aren’t attractive to you until you know them well. What you’re describing is typically two people who are attracted to each other, but want to wait to have sex for other reasons. Logic, vs attraction.
