Internetsexual is a sexual attraction to people online, for example on social media. People who are internetsexual can have long distance relationships. In most cases, if one meets that person in real life they will no longer feel attraction towards them.
Internetsexual isn't connected to any gender or other sexuality. One can be heterosexual, lesbian, etc. It is an extra term to identify oneself with. It may be considered a subset to aceflux or abrosexual, as one who is internetsexual may have a differing sexuality offline.
It is similar to websexualityswap.
