I love Rei so much I love using fanart of her to express myself and emojis on discord help that a lot so I would love if any server like that existed

Hey, I've been struggling with romantic attraction and how it expresses itself ever since I had my first real relationship. A friend suggested I might be demiromantic, but I want to get confirmation from a community. So here's my story:

I'm a 19 year old trans girl, I definitely feel a sort of attraction to people (mostly women/fem) but I am scared of committing to a relationship due to a past experience where I hurt my angel of an ex because I wasn't able to reciprocate. I ended up calling myself Aro for a while until I met my current wifey (not a girlfriend yet due to the fear of relationships I stated before). We talked a bit in the past but never in depth, but when we met this time, we almost instantly clicked. We shared personality traits, traumas, (nsfw warning >!kinks!<), and so much more. Every day that passes, we learn new things we share or ways we perfectly fit each other. And I definitely feel a way I'm inclined to call love but still afraid to. The thing is, from reading what other people have described it as, demiromance requires a while of connecting before romantic attraction happens. And while yes, I and her fit each other like puzzle pieces, and we connected really fast, I'm worried that it would still disqualify that from the demiromantic title. I'd love to know everyone else's input. And if you don't think I'm Demiro, what other label do you think would work?
