The triangular theory of love is a theory of love developed by psychologist Robert Sternberg. The theory characterizes love within the context of interpersonal relationships by three different components:
Passion - The addictive component; sexual in nature; 100% = nirvana.
Commitment - Boring component, nonetheless very effective in holding relationships together.
Intimacy - Wholesome component; most of the time used to justify passion.
I think, there could be more precise definitions. Perhaps memory failure. Transience or bias. Never mind.XD
