Chương 23: Love: Part 2 Kinds of Love
8 Types of Love:
1. Unconditional Love (AGAPE)
First, we have agape love. This is an altruistic, selfless, unconditional love. The Greeks thought it was quite radical, perhaps because so few people seem capable of feeling it long-term.
2. Romanic Love (EROS)
Eros is named after the Greek god of love and fertility. Therefore, it is usually associated with romantic, passionate, and physical love. It is an expression of sexual passion and desire.
3. Affectionate Love (PHILIA)
The Greeks defined this kind of love as "affectionate love." In other words, it is the kind of love that you feel for your friends.
4. Self-love (PHILUATIA)
Philautia is self-love. In our modern day society, most people associate self-love with being narcissistic, selfish, or stuck on themselves. However, this is not what the ancient Greeks meant by self-love.
5. Familiar Love (STORGE)
Storge can be defined as "familiar love."
6. Enduring Love (PRAGMA)
The ancient Greeks define pragma as "enduring love." In other words, it's almost the opposite of eros (sexual love). Eros tends to burn out quickly because of its passion and intensity. However, pragma is a love that has matured and developed over a long period of time.
7. Playful Love (LUDUS)
Ludus is known as the "playful love." However, a better way to describe it is the feeling of infatuation in the early days of romance. If you've been in love before, you know what I'm talking about.
It's the butterflies in your stomach, the giddiness you feel when you see your love walk through the door, and the feeling of never wanting to be without them.
Studies show that when people are experiencing this type of love, their brain is acting much like it does if it was on cocaine. In other words, your brain is lit up and active just like someone who is literally high on a drug. It makes you feel alive and excited about life.
8. Obsessive Love (MANIA)
Mania is not necessarily a good type of love, because it is obsessive. It's the type of love that can lead someone into madness, jealousy, or even anger. That is because the balance between eros (sexual) and ludus (playful) is terribly off.
As you read love had 8 kinds right but the most wonderful and powerful of it was Agape or Eternal Love, that God gave for us.😍😇
