Love Styles

Introduction

Love styles grew out of close relationships research. Clearly we each express


parts of each style to some degree and this mix will vary in expression across
relationships and over time. Reaching for another or opposite style may
characterise otherwise inexplicable choices of affair partner in a
marital infidelity or partner poaching.

The six styles are called

 Eros: My partner and I have the right physical chemistry between


us
 Ludus: I believe that what my partner doesn't know about me
wont hurt him/her.
 Storge: Our love is the best kind because it grew out of a long
friendship.
 Pragma: A main consideration in choosing my partner was how
he/she would reflect on my family.
