Attraction is not something given or revoked, like a gift, it is something people just feel involuntarily and it can wax and wane or even appear and disappear abruptly. You see to think loss of attraction is something people do to be mean, and that's just not how it works.

Attraction is based on the apparent aspects of a person one has been able to observe up until that point, whether that's a person's physical appearance (possibly with clothes on) or their personality or whatever. Feeling attraction at some point is not a requirement to continue to feel it, should something happen that reveals qualities about the person that one does not find attractive - it could be something about the person's body, or it could be that they turn out to be an asshole.

It's the same regardless of orientation, because even if you are attracted to all bodies, there's no way you are attracted to all personalities. Even demisexuality isn't immune, because even if you feel you know someone well enough to be attracted to them, they could be putting on a facade, and if the mask falls, there goes the attraction.
