DEMISEXUAL

brkljakameha:

Demisexuals are characterized by a lack of sexual attraction toward any
person unless they become deeply emotionally or romantically connected
with a specific person or persons. The level of connection it takes for
sexual desire to form is dependent on how close the relationship is
rather than initial attraction. It is an orientation that is not chosen.

Demisexuality does not refer to the active restraint or repression of sexual desires or actions.

Demi-
is a prefix meaning half. This is used to mean halfway between sexual
and asexual. The term originated in the asexual community, specifically
within the Asexual Visibility and Education Network (AVEN).
