Different kinds of love

August 24: What do you think about love? How do you define it? I define it as a jar full of emotions where you can find happiness as well as sadness; it makes you passionate as well as cold. Not only this, love usually is divided into categories like material and platonic love.

August 24: What do you think about love? How do you define it? I define it as a jar full of emotions where you can find happiness as well as sadness; it makes you passionate as well as cold. Not only this, love usually is divided into categories like material and platonic love.

There is also another type of love where affection is expressed through physical, verbal, mental and sexual dominance.  Similarly, material love is opting for earthly pleasure and is sometimes considered selfish. 


Platonic love, on the contrary, represents a pure and selfless form of love where one is happy in the other’s happiness. The kind of love is completely different from the other kinds of love as the emotions and desires are different. 


The best example of platonic love is Romeo and Juliet. The duo sacrificed their lives for each other’s happiness. It also has an overwhelming feeling of passion and respect towards your beloved. 


Summing up, people who are really in love with each other without having to sacrifice anything are the most happiest and the luckiest ones. I wish I could find a Romeo, don’t you?
