Four Types of love

-

Most individuals believe that love is just that warm touchy-feely a person has when they are with a familiar person, however, love is much more than that. love is caring in action, love isn't what we feel, but what we do. Four types of love were derived from the ancient Greek (Eros, storage, agape and phileo).

 Agape
This is unconditional love that sees beyond the outer surface and accepts the recipient for whom he/she is regardless of their flaws, shortcoming or faults. It is a committed and chosen love.

Phileo
Refer to an affectionate, and tender platonic love.

Storge
This is a family and friendship love. This is the love that parents naturally feel for their children.

Eros
Passionate and intense love that arouses romantic feelings. love that felt particularly within the body. This type of love is an exulted and beautifully idealistic love usually between a man and woman.
