Intense feelings: physical interaction/attraction, lot of self-disclose, frequent interaction, high relational satisfaction, stay together longer as long as ludus is low, both males/females enjoy this love type. If eros is the only love type in the relationship, then it will fade quickly. Storge (primary) companionate love: enjoy doing activities together, dependent, stable, but not exciting, negative: it can get boring, best to see some storge with eros. It does result in relational satisfaction, like in love with your best friend: females are more inclined to like this love type. Mania (secondary eros & ludus: passionate love but no commitment, like a roller coaster, because there is a game element to the relationship. When it gets bad, it gets really bad. One who gives and one who receives (too much for both: unconditional love, results in high relational satisfaction, male and females are both agape lovers. Destructive: denial (can"t see that the tension exist)
