This one's a bit silly for me, seeing as I'm asexual. I think it's best to not over-complicate it. I believe romantic attraction is when you want to spend more time with who someone is internally, and sexual attraction is when you want to spend more time with who someone is externally. At least, that's the simple way of it.

Sexual attraction is typically defined as a pull or allure toward a specific person in which you wish to partake in sexual activities with them. It's looking at a person and having a feeling that makes you think "I'd like to have sex with them." Romantic attraction, on the other hand, is typically defined as a similar pull or allure toward a specific person, but instead of a sexual desire, it's a romantic desire. It's when you look at someone and have a feeling that makes you think "I'd like to do romantic things with them." What those romantic things entail depends on the person.

Um. Romantic Attraction is when you are "platonically" attracted to people, as in you would love to hold their hand and kiss them, but you don't feel a need to have intercourse. Sexual attraction includes the possibility of wanting to have sex and having feeling of possible of lust
