TESTOSTERONE, AND ESTROGEN.

LOVE

LOVE IS A FEELING OF DEEP AFFECTION, PASSION, OR STRONG LIKING FOR A PERSON OR THING.

1. INTIMACY

IT IS CLOSENESS BETWEEN PEOPLE IN PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS.

• (^) BEING OPEN AND VULNERABLE TO THAT

PERSON WHOM WE DEEPLY TRUST, WHO WE

FEEL CONNECTED WITH, AND WHO VALUES

US WITH UNCONDITIONAL POSITIVE

REGARD – ROGERS

• COMMUNICATION IS A KEY COMPONENT IN

DEVELOPING INTIMACY, WHERE SELF-

DISCLOSURE IS PRACTIVED.

2. COMMITMENT

• IS^ AN^ ACT^ OF^ DECIDING^ TO CONSISTENTLY FULFILL AND LIVE BY AGREEMENTS MADE WITH ANOTHER PERSON, ENTITY, OR CAUSE, AND WHERE THE VALUES OF INTEGRITY AND RESPECT SERVE AS A GUIDE TO ONE S’ BEHAVIOR AND THINKING.
