Demisexual is a sexual identity that means that one is not attracted to another unless they like their personality. So a person is attracted to certain personalities rather than physical attraction.

Demisexuals and Demiromantics (if I'm missing others I'm sorry) do not experience sexual or romantic attraction until a strong bond has been created, respectively.

When you're demisexual, it means that you only get sexually attracted to people with whom you've formed a strong emotional connection. When you're demiromantic, it means that you can fall in love only with such people.

Demisexual/Demiromantic is when you only feel those feelings after a very deep bond has been formed. It means that you can't look at someone you dont know and feel romance or sexual attraction until you know them and know them on another level. (this is very vague and everyone's demi preferences are different.)

Being demi means you're only attracted to people that you already have bond with, so no immediate lightning bolt attraction. Even then, an attraction doesn't necessarily have to form.

When someone is demiromanic, it means someone has to establish a deep emotional bond with someone before they even experience romantic attraction at all. Demisexual means the same thing, but with sexual attraction.
