Robert Sternberg's triangular theory of love identifies <u>passion, intimacy, and commitment</u> as three components that shift in emphasis as romantic relationships develop.
Explanation:
According to Robert Sternberg's triangular theory of love, there are three basic components that make up love relationships: intimacy, passion and commitment. Passion in a couple relationship refers to the desire or need for union with the other member of the couple. According to Sternberg, it is the "burning component" of the relationship, thereby referring to the sexual desire they experience in a relationship for each other. Intimacy is related to those feelings and behaviors that bring us closer to the other person. Commitment refers to the decision to maintain a relationship with a person, to remain united both in good times and in bad times. Sternberg notes that each of these components evolve differently over time. Intimacy develops gradually as the relationship progresses and can continue to grow, although it is in its beginnings when it grows faster. The passion grows vertiginously, intensely and quickly in its beginnings but with the passage of time it decreases, reaching stabilize at moderate levels. Finally, engagement tends to grow slowly and stabilizes when the rewards and costs of the relationship appear clearly.
