I think I might be demisexual then. I haven't heard of it until it was mentioned on here. I do think there's a possibility that if I was with someone for a good amount of time, say 5 months as an example and this person understood me, understood my shutdowns and eccentric behavior and didn't judge me then i think I may well develop sexual feelings towards them if I thought they felt the same.
Its extremely difficult to form a connection with someone when you feel misunderstood, and have to mask your behavior and act normal, just like my last relationship
That'll happen. If you're patient.
I've been in my current relationship for 13 years. Luckily, my partner is not sexually charged at all, and is pretty much asexual also. She's also into the same things as me, and understands how my thought processes work.
We just get on well. There's obviously some compromise on both sides, just as in any relationship, but no pressure on either of us to be anything other than ourselves, and it seems to work great.
