A third term is aesthetic attraction, which is "I like looking at that person" but not necessarily "I want to have intercourse with that person"
Took me a while to realize this one. I thought maybe I was bi for a while because I would see some men and think, "damn, he is hot." But I don't actually want any kind of relationship or intercourse with a man. I just appreciate them aesthetically.
