― Erich Fromm, The Art of Loving

He cannot help doubting himself and his own convictions, if not his sanity.

    What does true love mean?

    Robert Sternberg, a psychologist, developed the Sternberg’s triangular theory of love in the 1980s. This theory identified seven types of love based on the levels of intimacy, passion, and commitment present:

    • Friendship: Friendships don’t typically experience significant intimacy, passion, and commitment, but instead are characterized by liking. 
    • Infatuation: The primary component of infatuation is passion. Infatuation can describe the lust and infatuation that often occur early in relationships. 
    • Empty love: This type of love is characterized by commitment, without passion or intimacy. Empty love may describe a long-term relationship where partners have drifted apart from each other, both emotionally and physically.
