Theclose Bond-requirement Can Happen Very Quickly Or Very Slowly, Its A Very Individual Thing, And Is
The “close bond”-requirement can happen very quickly or very slowly, it’s a very individual thing, and is different from person to person. There is no time-limit, if it feels right calling yourself “demi”, call yourself that.
I struggled with this myself. I felt like a fraud, because I had experienced primary sexual attraction once a couple of years back. But then it hit me, that it was probably more a case of “the exception confirms the rule”, more than “proof” of allosexuality.
I call myself demisexual, because it feels right, and nobody can tell me, or you, that what you identify with is wrong. It’s really only your decision what you call yourself, and you don’t have to explain yourself to anyone.
Am I still demisexual if I don’t require a super close bond?
Like, what it’s someone I’ve been friends with for a few months?
Would I be gray-asexual then?

Demisexuality is basically asexuality with fine print. It’s like

(@narraukoiel your post about Misha’s lips reminded me of when this happened! And, if I’m remembering correctly, her actual words were: “The angel is mine.”)
