Four basic kinds of love: passionate/romantic love, companionate love, compassionate love, and attachment love. Companionate- the feelings of intimacy and affection we feel toward someone w whom our lives are deeply intertwined. Passionate love- the feelings of intense longing, accompanied by physiological arousal, we feel for another person; when our love is reciprocated we feel great fulfillment and ecstasy, but when it"s not we feel sadness and despair.
