Suggest to me what it is. So I can estimate the correct time to hop off. I only vaguely know what I mean.
I've been thinking about it at random times for about three years, finally got fed up and searched for it this morning. The Four Types of Love. More accurately, the four Greek words used to describe love. Of course, the love you feel for certain important people in your life differs... Perhaps that's why it's easier to hate some people. The love you feel for them is less intense? I don't know, I'm only 17. I can only stumble around, mumbling "What if?
To make a record of it so I don't forget this information again, the four words:
• Agape; meaning "love": mostly referring to brotherly love, charity; (And in Christianity) the love of God has for man as his children and of man for God as a Father.
• Éros; meaning "love"; mostly of the sexual kind.
•Storge; meaning "love or affection"; especially of the kind you'd feel towards your parents or your children. (Not Freudian style, with the whole Oedipus/Electra Complex.); can also be known to describe putting up with or accepting certain situations (of tyranny), but I don't know if that counts at all.
•Philia; meaning "affectionate regard"; usually between equals; probably referring to platonic love - love you may feel for a friend without any sexual attraction.
I don't know. The results of my research were summarised crudely and inaccurate.
