Valentine's- What's Love

According to Zick Rubin,

love= attachment + caring + intimacy.

There were arguments that love is actually a cultural invention arises due to social pressures and expectations, but if this is true, it would stand to reason that love would simply not exist in some cultures.

But instead, love is universal. Therefore, it is deduced that love is affected by both cultures and biological variables such as hormones. It is a social and biologiacal needs.

There are 2 types of love: passionate and compassionate love

compassionate love= mutual respect, trust, and affection

passionate love= intense feelings and sexual attraction

compassionate love can lasts for life, while passionate love approximately can lasts from 6 to 30 months

Ideally passionate love leads to compassionate love

The most ideal love is the combination the security and stability of compassionate with the intensity of passionate love

It is suggested that ideal love is rare...
