I Have a Big Problem

I recently discovered I might be demisexual (a person who does not experience sexual attraction or desire until they have formed an emotional bound; so called because it's halfway between a average sex drive and asexuality). This is fine, except...
Dating as most people know it won't work for me at all. It takes lots of time to form a bond and get to know each other, and most people think that there should be a spark right away, and that's literally impossible for me.
The truth would be "Well, I'd need to get to know you better before I could form an attraction to you, but I can't guarantee that and the whole process might take months to a year. And until then, there won't be anything physical." Poof! Alone forever! 
But lying would be worse, since I would have to either fake it to the max or try to come up with a reason I don't want to go beyond cuddling for a very long time. 
Besides, I can see a ton of tricky friendships in my future! That's icky enough with an average drive!
So, any advice/ideas?
