Desinoromantic refers to an aro-spec attraction where one does not experience full-on romantic attraction. They may experience alterous attraction or other forms of attraction, but they do not experience complete romantic attraction. They may describe their attraction as "liking or feeling emotionally close to someone, but not loving someone," which is the end of their attraction. It is similar to demiromantic.

The sexual counterpart is desinosexual.

History

The term was coined by Tumblr/DeviantArt user pastelmemer on or before August 24, 2015. The flag was created by the same user around the time of coining.^[1]^[2]

Flag

The desinoromantic flag has three stripes: a pink stripe, a grey stripe, and a green stripe. Pink is the color of friendship, as well as a muted tone of red, the color of romance. Grey represents that this is a gray-aro spectrum orientation. And green represents aromanticism.

Etymology

The word desino itself comes from Latin, meaning "I leave" or "I stop."
