Demiplatonic
Demiplatonic is an Aspec (specifically Aplspec) orientation where one experiences platonic attraction to a person after they have developed an emotional connection to them. What counts as a "close connection" can vary between Demiplatonics. 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 Demiplatonics may choose to further define their orientation in terms of genders they are attracted to (Demiheteroplatonic, Demipomolatonic, etc.). Others do not find this necessary, or feel that they have enough experiences of platonic attraction to figure out who they’re attracted to.
Etymology
The prefix demi- means "half" or "partial". The prefix is also used in words such as demigod.
Pronunciation
History
The term Demiplatonic, presumably, came after Demisexual and Aplatonic/Aplspec identities became more known.
