Did I say the wrong thing?! (re my potential for getting feelings for a sexual partner)

Ok so I think I may be worried over nothing but wanted to get some other people's insights!

For context - I (F36) had a short relationship with another woman (my first same sex experience and my first fwb type scenario so all in all very new to me!). She ended it which broke my heart a bit. I think there were a few reasons but one of the issues (I think) was that she wanted something casual and I (and maybe her, I don't know) got feelings for her and it all got a bit too intense for her.

I am now chatting to another lovely woman. She says she is demisexual so needs a connection with someone, and that ONS and similar are absolutely not what she wants.

So, having been burnt once before, I wanted to bring up the fact that I've realised that I have the potential to develop feelings for people I'm intimate with, especially when socialising/going on dates/non sexual intimacy is involved. But now I'm worried I've said the wrong thing and that I could scare her off?! I didn't know much about demisexuality, so I googled it and apparently they need an emotional connection (not necessarily love I guess, but something at least) to find someone sexually attractive. So logically me saying I have a tendency (or at least potential) to develop feelings shouldn't put her off? But I'm just worried I'm gonna be rejected again lol.

Any thoughts?!
