Probably I am demisexual & demiromantic.? (aesthetic attraction vs sexual attraction )
Actually, I never really had a crush in my entire life (Except When I was 15-16 Not crush But Just sexual attractions but Considering that sexuality is Fluid but after that something started changing as I started growing up ) – no celebrity crush, no school crush, nothing. I was confused about sexual attraction vs. aesthetic attraction, and tbh, I never really had sexual attraction with someone, for eg., to touch them, to have sex with them to kiss. Just a very small push I felt; that's all. I have never really found a relationship as something very crucial in my life as compared to others. When I was in high school, I first felt some attractions towards someone, and that was no sexual attraction at all, at least consciously. It's just that my friend said to make her my girlfriend, and I tried that. I slowly started feeling for her as I started idealising her. I felt emotionally connected to her as well as intellectually, and I liked to hear English from her, and she was good in maths as well. I used to find her aesthetically attractive but never really thought about being sexual with her; like, it was very, very rare when I used to get sexual thoughts about her. But it used to be repulsive. Like my heart and body are not accepting her never thought about kissing her or being sexual with her. the idea of love at first sight. I don't get romantic interest towards someone based on looks only; I need emotional and intellectual intimacy before that. I recently with someone in a long-distance relationship. But I can watch porn and feel aroused by that, but when it comes to real life, it's rare. So my girlfriend talked about being intimate and that time she sent me little intimate pics with only cloth, but it was intimate, tight cloth. I knew I felt something in my body, but I wasn't sure what I felt. It wasn't really sexual; it was Just something like I want to be close to her, not necessarily wanting to have sex. She tried to seduce me, more like being intimate with me, but I said, "Sex feels like too much as of now," as at that time I didn't really have an emotional connection with her. But nowadays when she talks about intimacy, I get really aroused. Maybe it's because it's been months and we have already built emotional and intellectual intimacy ? I don't know, but I was talking about this romantic relationship as a romantic relationship with physical intimacy, as I never really got a thought about this. She was the one who started being intimate on video calls or texts. So I feel aroused afterwards only. Although I never thought much about sexual thoughts as much as she has done. She has already asked me, "Are you asexual or romantic?" As of now, I have just told her I might be "demisexual or demiromantic". I never really imagined myself much into romantic settings or sexual stuff. I just used to masturbate, as it used to feel good. But since I have met my girlfriend, it feels something different. Honestly, I was not looking for someone; she was the one who approached me first.
