Yesterday we looked at 4 types of love, and today there are 4 more left. Moreover, if three of them, I think, are quite familiar to you, then the fourth may raise questions, because it will not be considered from the perspective of the relationship between the couple. So, let's get started: STORGE is, in a way, a tender and faithful friendship that develops over time within a family. Even when one of the couple (and not only couples) is annoying - it is this type of love that allows us to remember that adversity is all temporary, and the sun will definitely shine behind it, we sometimes feel for pets - that’s why we probably forgive them for their dirty tricks , because we love little assholes. PRAGMA is a mature and harmonious relationship. Love that we were able to carry and preserve through the years. Although she is pragmatic, she is rather fabulous. And not even because it is rare, but because, like in a fairy tale, it went through serious trials and came to a happy ending. AGAPE is a symbiosis of selfless love for a person and dissolution in the object of love. That stage when everything that happens around is perceived with love and without emotion. When the object of love only wants happiness, regardless of whether he is next to you or not. Everything is for him and I expect nothing in return. Many call this the highest love. For me, this is not entirely true, because when we do everything for another/others, we forget about ourselves, and this is still not love (the author’s opinion may not coincide with the official opinion of science) PHILAUTHIA - love for the most important person in life - to yourself. The previous type of love talked about the importance of giving, this one says that you need to go into a relationship when you have everything, in order to be a complete person, when there is love, acceptance, passion, care and a wish for happiness specifically for to myself. And then you can interact with others from the position - “I know what love is - I feel it inside, I know how to receive and give it.” This is balance within. Moreover, there is no prohibition or restrictions on receiving or giving feelings, emotions to another, providing or asking for help. If we go back to the first day I wrote about love, this is the same integral love when a person knows how to be an Adult, a Parent and a Child. Knows how to accept herself, express herself and just be herself. During this week, I described several approaches to such a familiar and at the same time ambiguous concept as LOVE.
