sidenote::: first i have to say this: the pictures that are meant to describe love, dont at all. people making out doesnt prove theyre in love. everyone makes out. it doesnt mean much in our modern day society so why are we using it as a symbol of something so great?
1. 3 types of love.
a.eros- "erotic"
definition: love based on physical appearance
when you eros-love someone, you give to recieve, and dont recieve. this type of love is much like lust but lust is not a type of love it is an infatuation.
2.phileo-"
brotherly love"
deifinition: love based on common interests or bonds
when you phileo-love someone, its a
relationship where you give to recieve.
3. agape- "
unconditional love"
definition- literally translated means charity. loving someone/something on no conditions(no matter what)
when you agape-love, you give for the sake of making the other person happy. because you truly want the best for them. you have no intentions of recieving.
2. "Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps record of no wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
3. The single most important, longed-for, wonderful, perfect emotions that are possible to feel.
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But
the greatest of these is love." - 1 Corinthians 13:13
