🌈 I Thought I Was Bi. Then I Learned About Demisexuality.

I used to think I was bisexual — not because it fully resonated, but because it was one of only four labels I had ever heard: straight, gay, lesbian, or bi.I wasn’t fully straight. I wasn’t a lesbian.
So “bi” felt like the closest fit… by default.But now — thankfully, beautifully — we have language.
We have nuance. We have names that feel more like home.And for me, that’s demisexual.
It’s the part of the asexual spectrum that says:I don’t experience sexual attraction unless there’s a deep emotional connection.
