REAL. I thought I was ace for years, learned later it was mostly trauma. I still have a lower sex drive than most and am functioning under the demisexual label, but i have an understanding gf so tbh it’s all whatever atp.

I think I might be demisexual but I question my reasons for it. Like is it because I only feel safe enough to have sexual interactions with my partner? Idk the answer to that tbh

I mean if the label makes you feel good you don’t have to overly justify your use of it. But I consider myself demi because I generally need to know someone for a bit and date for at least a month before I’m ready to do anything sexual
