Attitudes toward love
Attitudes Toward Love refers to your level of needs for romantic love and friendship love.
There
are two main types of love – Romantic Love and Companionate Love.
Romantic Love is passionate, emotional and intense, whereas Companionate
Love is a deep, affectionate attachment. People feel these two types of
loves to different degrees in a relationship, and the levels of each
can fluctuate over time. You scored as someone who may be best described
as “a “hopeless romantic with a touch of realist.” This means that you
do value the safety, security and comfort of Companionate Love, but for
you a relationship must have a strong dose of Romantic Love. In this
sense, you desire someone who is on the same wavelength as you –sharing
similar attitudes, moods and impulses. It is common for people in this
range to view their partner as a soul mate – a person who you were
destined to meet and fall in love with. This attitude of “love conquers
all” is optimistic and sweet, but it is not productive to remain in a
“love daze” and idealize your partner constantly. Seeing a partner and
relationship while only wearing rose-colored glasses can prevent you
from identifying and addressing problem areas in the relationship. Bottom
line: you need someone who satisfies the hopeless romantic in you but
who will insist that you take time to get to know each other well before
the taking the relationship to next levels.
