Aspectussexual is an asexual spectrum orientation where an individual appears to have sexual attraction but actually feels no sexual attraction at all.
Aspectussexual individuals tend to act in ways that most individuals would associate with allosexuality. For example, an aspectussexual individual may like to flirt, make sexual jokes, or look sexy, but they may do so because they enjoy it, not because they have the goal of attracting someone for a sexual relationship.
Aspecussexual individuals may have been accused of leading others on as well as pretending to be asexual. Aspecussexual individuals are no less on the asexual spectrum just because they choose to act in a supposedly allosexual way.
A similar term is pseudosexual.
