EmpatheticBadass Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Okay, this is going to sound wacky. I've fallen in love a handful of times in life, and it's always been at a distance. And I also felt sexually attracted to them. At a distance. The whole thing includes a very large portion of imagination about how I would like this person to be. An idealised picture of someone... which is basically too good to exist. So - when they turn out to be like every other human being, the attraction goes away. Diminishes, to eventually vanish. Pretty much the opposite of demisexuality, I figure. Which means I imagine myself to be a sexual person when it happens, but I've never enjoyed sex and don't have any sexual thoughts in between those crazy episodes. What on earth is that about? I'm immediately going to correct myself :) I only experienced sexual attraction one of those times. But it can still pop up ever so mildly and seldom, as long as I don't know the person.

Spectre/Ex/Machina Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 You seem Grey-Asexual to me, I could be wrong though. It is just how I read what you wrote. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tarfeather Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 From your description it could just as well be that you simply have too high expectations that no real person can meet, which wouldn't have anything to do with orientation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, well if it is, it's going on on a subconscious level and only involves my sexuality, since I in all other areas of life tend to like and be drawn to the "misfits"... Anyway, I googled opposite of demisexual and at least I'm not entirely alone... http://www.demigray.org/post/73852117191/the-opposite-of-demisexual https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20140710221421AARlHk4 http://asexualadvice.tumblr.com/post/94722873908/is-there-a-word-for-the-opposite-of-demisexual-as To give a few examples. Not many seem to understand it, though :/ I'm inventing a word for it here and now. I'm going to call it iconosexual. It's a misfotunate form of orientation and I don't recommend it, lol. Stay away from it! You'll only get disappointed! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
