homoemotional 

A person who has an emotional and romantic attraction solely to and has romantic relationships solely with people of the same sex. This term does not imply a certain sexual orientation.

Note: This term is in contrast to the term homosexual, which in its dictionary definition implies merely a sexual attraction to the same sex, with no regard to emotional attachment whatsoever. A person could, for example, be bisexual and sexually attracted to both sexes but homoemotional and only emotionally attracted to the same sex, and thus will only date someone of the same sex.
Tim: Is Lindsay a lesbian? She's only ever dated girls.
Bobby: Nah, she's actually bisexual, but she's homoemotional, so there's little point in her dating a guy.
