So, a kind of personal question, hopefully someone can give me some insight. I've had some maybe romantic feelings recently for one of my friends and I've never felt any romantic feelings for anyone before, but I'm also known to daydream constantly about having a romantic relationship. Is it just a coincidence, or could I be demiromantic? I don't even know if thats enough to go by, but I've been trying to be more educated about some of the lesser known romantic orientations and don't know if I'm jumping to conclusions too quickly.

You could be demi-romantic. You also might not be. If you feel like you are, you can ID that way. If later on that happens to not be the case, you can stop IDing that way. Or, you don't have to ID yourself at all if you don't want to. I personally wouldn't assume that based off of one instance, but it also depends on how old you are, how long you've thought about being in a romantic relationship, and if you've had crushes in the passed that seemed to imply demi-romanticism or otherwise.

Good Point! I think you're right, off of this one time it's most likely coincidence. It's nice to have another opinion though! You did bring up something I hadn't thought about, and since it is the first instance it probably is good to assume that it's nothing specific towards demiromanticism. Plus, like you said, it is about personal preferance on IDing as any one orientation. I super appreciate your help! It definitely was nice having a place to ask and being able to get a genuine response!

It's no problem. Remember, it's all about how you feel and what you think. We can't tell you how to ID, but we can help you figure it out.  I'm glad I could help. |

im kind of in the same boat as you. have you considered grey-romantic? it means that you rarely experience romantic attraction, while demiromantic means you only experience it after a strong bond has been formed
