TRIANGULAR THEORY
OF LOVE

 Sternberg's triangular theory of love


was developed after the identification
of passionate love and companionate
love.
COMPONENT OF LOVE

There are three components


of love.

 Intimacy
 Passion
 Commitment
INTIMACY
 Intimacy involves feelings of
closeness, trust, and the sharing of
one’s innermost thoughts, which can
involve into a heightened level of trust
between two people.
PASSION
 Passion is the motivational
component of love and reflects
attraction, romance, and sexual
desire, which is driven by sexual
attraction.
COMMITMEN
T
 Commitment is the decision to
maintain a long-term caring
relationship, which is a conscious
effort to keep the love and
connection in a relationship going.
FORMS OF LOVE
LIKING/FRIENDSHIP
 It refers to the set of feelings one experiences in relationships that can truly be
characterized as friendship. That is closeness, bondedness and warmth
INFATUATED LOVE:
 Romantic relationships often start out as infatuated love and become romantic love as
intimacy develops over time. Without developing intimacy or commitment, infatuated love
may disappear suddenly.
EMPTY LOVE:
 Empty love is characterized by commitment without intimacy or passion. A stronger love
may deteriorate into empty love.
ROMANTIC LOVE
 Romantic love "derives from a combination of the intimate and passionate components of
love.
COMPANIONATE LOVE:
 Companionate love is an intimate, non-passionate type of love that is stronger than
friendship because of the element of long-term commitment.
FATUOUS LOVE:
 Fatuous love can be exemplified by a whirlwind courtship and marriage.
CONSUMMATE LOVE:
 Consummate love is the complete form of love, representing an ideal relationship which
people strive towards.
