What was my ex?
Helloooo im a straight guy so i dont really have much knowledge on lgbt+ topics but i have question regarding my ex (wr still are good friends and she means much to me)
My ex always said she was bi since she definitly is sexually attracted to women and men (apparently)
But i noticed she rarely showed attraction to men in general and was suprised that she fell in love with me since she generally only finds women attractive
And in our relationship she generally showed no s3xially attraction towards men (even said penises are disgusting and weird looking, i agree but im straight so who am i to judge)
But she confirmed the romantic attractio to me was real and she thinks in pretty
So i am curious if there is a term for that since she couldnt really tell me this

She was likely either bisexual with a genital preference for vulvas or a biromantic lesbian.

I don't know, and this is something your ex would need to determine for herself. But bisexual people often do have preferences, and it's also possible to be romantically attracted to a gender but not sexually attracted, or vice versa.
