Amazing all the types of terms associated with love. I never gave thought to there being so many diverse types and feelings and things that were though to be love but were not really.

Consummate love
Wow! really good blog. I know I have finally found my consummate love. I was in a infatuation love and a self destructive and controlling relationship before getting to the good love that I feel I can accomplish anything. He feels the same way too. My husband and I are grateful for each other and grateful for not having to keep looking for each other. :)) Keep Inspiring!

There are things to be said for the loners, too. For the most part, they have some level of peace and are not badgered emotionally on a daily basis. But if you're gonna love, take it all the way. That consummate love thing sounded like the best option to me. It's what I'm shooting for. Nice post.

Quite interesting dsm . I wonder if it has a lot to do with being in the right place when one is young, just a thought.

Re: Looking at my own relationship with my partner.....
waterkat, your close friendship implies intimacy. sharing secrets, hopes and dreams?

Dsm - so many kinds of love with different meanings. I think it begins with loving oneself first. Thanks so much for sharing this - very enlightening and your visit, and lol.

Real love has to start with loving God and self before one can truly love
another.....then all the good stuff is possible. Romance..trust ..intimacy...friendship...companion...parent ...child....

Without the kind of love where God- as one understands Him/Her- as the first part in the love between two people to give faith to that love, it isn't going anywhere good.......

Lol kingmi....Don't ask me for advice on this subject! I'm definitely NOT in a position to be of any kind of help.

Looking at my own relationship with my partner.....
I find that there is a little mixture of a few of these different qualities. For example we have the close friendship, but with committment, and a little romance thrown in, but without the intimacy. What type of love would this be called?
