LOVE


I have just  read an article about a clear and definite definition about: what love is? There are  two types of different notions about love these are the Chemical basis and the Psychological basis.
            The first definiton refers  to what Helen Fisher (anthropologist) divides the experience of love into three important  stages: lust, attraction, and attachment.
            In contrast to, the second concept refers to Psychologist Robert Sternberg formulated a triangular theory of love and argued that love has three different components: intimacy, commitment, and passion.
            I always think about  the real meaning of love and these two notions clear my mind.

  1. Trying to give an accurate and definite definition of a feeling is an impossible task. What is more, each of us can have a personal definition of what is love. Anyway, put into words something you feel is really difficult. That's why for me love is not what you say, love is what you do. And that is the real meaning of love

  2. Erin I agree with you! it`s impossible to define Love. The term is so broad and every person can give it their own meaning reflecting on it their personal experience. And besides, Love is seen in every day life,for example in the things you do, the things you say, how you treat other people, etc.

  3. I totaly agree with Erin how can you clear your mind with a definition about love! for me love is something that goes beyond everything and envolves a huge amount of things not only three points in a definition. besides you can feel attraction and not being in love with that person!
