CONSUMMATE LOVE
REFERS TO THE DRIVES THAT LEAD TO ROMANCE, PHYSICAL, ATTRACTION, AND SEXUAL CONSUMMATION
PASSION
REFERS TO THE FEELINGS OF CLOSENESS, CONNECTEDNESS, AND BONDNESS
INTIMACY
REFERS TO DECISION TO LOVE AND THE COMMITMENT TO MAINTAIN THAT LOVE
COMMITMENT
THE ABSENCE OF THE THREE COMPONENTS
NON LOVE
SET OF FEELINGS ONE EXPERIENCES WITHOUT THE INTENSE FEELING OF PASSION OR COMMITMENT IN A ROMANTIC ASPECT
LIKING / FRIENDSHIP
THIS IS THE MOST COMMON ROOT OF LOVE AS IT IS BELIEVED THAT INTIMACY DEVELOPS OVER TIME
INFATUATION
CHARACTERIZED BY THE ABSENCE OF PASSION AND INTIMACY DESPITE THE PRESENCE OF COMMITMENT
EMPTY LOVE
LOVERS WHO ARE UNDER THIS CATEGORY ARE SAID TO NOT ONLY BE DRAWN AND BONDED PHYSICALLY BUT EMOTIONALLY
ROMANTIC LOVE
THIS IS STRONGER THAN THE FRIENDSHIP FORM BECAUSE OF THE ELEMENT OF COMMITMENT
IT CAN BE OBSERVED IN LONG TERM MARRIAGES
COMPANIONATE LOVE
ITS THE TYPE OF WHIRLWIND ROMANCES THAT END UP IN OUR TELEVISION SETS
THE EMOTIONAL CORE IS MISSING
FATUOUS LOVE
THIS TYPE OF LOVE SITS AT THE VERY CENTER
CONSUMMATE LOVE
MAINTAINING CONSUMMATE LOVE IS HARDER THAN ACHIEVING IT
THIS IS NOT A PERMANENT FORM OF LOVE
ROBERT STERNBERG
IS THE EASIEST TO DEVELOP AND THE QUICKEST TO FADE
PASSION
DEVELOPS MORE SLOWLY AND COMMITMENT MORE GRADUALLY STILL
INTIMACY
