	Triangular theory of love - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The triangular theory of love characterizes love in an interpersonal relationship on three different scales: intimacy, passion, and commitment.
		Companionate love is generally a personal relation you build with somebody you share your life with, but with no sexual or physical desire.
		The love ideally shared between family members is a form of companionate love, as is the love between deep friends or those who spend a lot of time together in any asexual but friendly relationship.

	DESCRIBING THE NEOCLASSICAL PSYCHE EMBEDDED IN STERNBERG'S TRIANGULAR THEORY OF LOVE Social Behavior and Personality - ...
		Sternberg's Triangular Theory of Love was examined to identify the structure of the psyche implied in that theory.

		The triangular theory of love is so called because it holds that love can be understood in terms of three components that together can be viewed as forming the vertices of a triangle: intimacy, passion, and decision/commitment (Sternberg, 1986).

		The theory suggests that successfully intelligent people are those who have the ability to achieve success according to their own definition of success, within their sociocultural context.
		The theory is based on the extent to which someone or some organization (a) wishes to change, (b) wishes to appear to change, and (c) believes he or she or it is capable of change.
		According to this theory, from early in life, people are exposed to various love stories, and as a function of this exposure and their personalities, they create a hierarchy of preferred stories.

		With this theory, the type and strength of a couple's love is determined by both the individual strength of the three components and the interaction between the three components.
		Romantic love is the combination of high intimacy and passion, companionate love of intimacy and commitment, fatuous love a combination of passion and commitment, and consummate love involves all three areas relatively equally.
		This theory of love as a story, as he calls it, stems from watching our parents, the media, reading books, and whatever other external factors influence our beliefs about what love should be like.

	THE EFFECTS OF MOVIE SCENES ON CHANGE IN LOVE STYLES
		Sternberg’s (1986) Triangular Theory of Love Scale (TTLS) and the Eros, Storage, and Agape portions of the Hendrick and Hendrick’s (1986) Love Attitudes Scale (LAS) were used to measure participants’ love styles (Tzeng, 1993).
		Love styles were defined by intimacy (emotional closeness/bonding), passion (desire/arousal), and commitment (decision to love and remain together; Sternberg, 1986).
		If the love style with the least score happened to be passion, a movie with a passionate romantic movie scene would be shown before taking the next survey in order to determine whether or not the movie scene had any influence on the scores.

		Love develops, grows, and lasts when a person finds someone else who fits what his or her particular story is all about."
		A couple may, for instance, be involved in a "love as a fantasy" story, which has one partner expecting a knight in shining armor and the other looking for a princess to save.

	Love - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Love is a basic dimension of human experience that is variously conveyed as a sense of tender affection, an intense attraction, the foundation of intimacy and good interpersonal chemistry, willing self-sacrifice on behalf of another, and as an ineffable sense of affinity or connection to nature, other living beings, or even that which is unseen.
		A further peril for individuals that love, or can love others, is that love is not enduring and that many people have psychological defense mechanisms inhibit their ability to accept or reciprocate love.
		The Bible speaks of love as a set of attitudes and actions that are far broader than the concept of love as an emotional attachment.

		My research is motivated primarily by a theory of successful intelligence, which attempts to account for the intellectual sources of individual differences that enable people to achieve success in their lives, given the sociocultural context in which they live.

		The theory of love as a story is based on the notion that almost from the time people are born, they begin to form stories about what we believe love should be.
