Demiaroace

 is an aspec (specifically aroacespec) orientation where one experiences sexual and/or romantic attraction to a person after they have developed an emotional connection to them. What counts as a "close connection" can vary between demiaroaces. Forming an emotional bond with someone does not mean that one is automatically attracted to said person, as it just means there's now a possibility for one to feel attraction.

Some demiaroaces may choose to further define their orientation in terms of genders they are attracted to. Others do not find this necessary, or feel that they have enough experiences of sexual and/or romantic attraction to know who they’re attracted to.
