Zinniaro is an identity on the aromantic spectrum where one loses romantic attraction towards an individual after acting on it, whether only once or a few times. It is related to a few other amative orientations, particularly frayromantic. It is distinct from this, however, as the zinniaro identity is not related to how well one knows one's partner, or one's level of emotional connection. The loss of attraction also doesn't turn into disgust, so it is also distinct from fearomantic. Nor is it hedoneromantic, as it is unrelated to the pleasurability of the initial romantic encounter. Zinniaro is most similar to post rubor, but it isn't necessarily related to a level of excitement since the initial encounter may lack excitement as a priority.
The zinniaro identity can be fluid, flux, or both. For example, a zinniafluid individual might eventually find a partner with whom they don't lose romantic attraction after acting on it. Likewise, a zenniaflux individual might have periods of feeling zinniaromantic, or may regain romantic attraction to a partner after a significant amount of time has passed.
The exual counterpart is zinniace, and this can be extended to all eriattraction types. It may be combined with other orientations such as hetero-zinniaro or demipan-zinniaro. The zinniaro identity is not exclusive to any group.
