As human beings, we are social creatures and in most cases need the presence of positive relationships in our lives in order to thrive as love is one of the most important factors in predicting happiness and well-being. Love can be a tremendously wonderful buffer for stress and even increases immunity or resistance to certain illnesses. Love is a complex emotion and comes in many varieties, for example, the two-factor theory of love proposes Passionate Love which is an intense ongoing for a romantic partner, coupled with experiences of bliss and euphoria in the presence of a positive emotional union. Contrastingly, Compassionate Love is associated with affection, attention, friendship and long term commitment.
