| | Romantic love - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Romantic love is a form of love that is often regarded as different from mere needs driven by sexual desire, or lust. | | | Romantic love became a recognized passion in the Middle Ages, when in some cases insurmountable barriers of morality or convention separated the lovers. | | | Romantic love generally involves a mix of emotional and sexual desire, as opposed to Platonic love. |

| | Philosophy of Love [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] |
| | Modern romantic love returns to Aristotle's version of the special love two people find in each other's virtues-one soul and two bodies, as he poetically puts it. | | | The claim that 'love' cannot be examined is different from that claiming 'love' should not be subject to examination-that it should be put or left beyond the mind's reach, out of a dutiful respect for its mysteriousness, its awesome, divine, or romantic nature. | | | The concept is expanded on in the Judaic-Christian tradition of loving God: "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might" (Deuteronomy 6:5) and loving "thy neighbour as thyself" (Leviticus 19:18). |

| | On the other hand, if their romantic love is combined with companionate love, the companionate love will counteract these romantic impulses. | | | Liking is necessary for romantic and companionate love to combine - and it remains part of the package when they do. | | | In the long run, the person who is not loved in a nurturing way, who gets no appreciation when they need and deserve it, will become firmly fed up with their strictly romantic lover. |

| | Romantic Love |
| | According to such theorists, romantic love cannot hope to survive the day-to-day drudgeries of life. | | | Given the reality orientation of mature, romantic love, people like those described know realistically what they want and then make a choice based on that (Williams and Barnes, 1988). | | | Romantic love is a unique emotional state of intense excitement, great calm, or enhanced well-being in the presence of the other (Liebowitz, 1983). |

| | Love in Four Acts: What is Romantic Love? |
| | In a strange way, romantic love is the least understood part of the human psyche because we are content in believing that “it just happens”, that it is something so sacred that it clearly resists rational understanding, or that it is an entirely different experience for everyone such that it is impossible to articulate. | | | As a Jungian analyst, Robert Johnson is interested in exploring the cultural archetype of romantic love to uncover its psychological essence and meaning. | | | She defined passionate love as "a state of intense longing for union with another" and companionate love as "the affection we feel for those with whom our lives are deeply entwined". |

| | Modern Love |
| | One thing about romantic love that needs to be re-defined is that love only occurs between a man and a woman. | | | Modern romantic love is individually defined by the couple, and the choices that they make are based on their personal life experiences, beliefs, and needs. | | | The wonderful thing about modern love is that we are free to choose the type of person that we want to love. |

| | NodeWorks - Encyclopedia: Romantic fiction |
| | Romantic fiction is one of the oldest genres in literature, with a history dating, at least, from the twelfth-century concept of courtly lovea compound of Provençal troubador attitude, Ovid's Classical conventions, and Virgin Mary veneration. | | | Romantic fiction includes drama, poetry, and short stories, but, in English literature, the term often is synonymous with novels based upon romantic love. | | | Current romantic fiction often is denigrated as inferior to literary fiction. |

| | The sheer power of a beautifully (or, let's face it, even not-so-elegantly) written love letter cannot be overestimated, and those romantics among us who love words will likely luxuriate in the unabashed, untainted romance of the movie's famed billet-doux. | | | Love Letters is a simple, romantic diversion that's more of a beach novel than a classic. | | | Somehow, The Love Letter still manages to be a charming, light, bubblegum delight. |

| | To complete his theory, Sterberg defines eight distinctive types of love: Nonlove, Liking, Infatuated Love, Empty Love, Romantic Love, Companionate Love, Fatuous Love, and Consummate Love. | | | The ultimate form of love, which includes all three dimensions, is called consummate love. | | | This leaves only consummate love to represent truly complete, unconditional love. |

| | Romantic may be in the eye of the beholder, and let me tell you why: The most "romantic" stories I've read do not necessarily have happy endings, but they've magnificently depicted the yearning for love. | | | When a man falls in love with her, she's not prepared to meet him halfway. | | | Among recent novels that capture this longing, I recommend The Story of Lucy Gault, by William Trevor, which tells the sad tale of an Irish girl accidentally separated from her parents in the 1920s. |

| | Sure, there are lots of prettier clichés about love, like Sir Walter Scott's 'love is heaven' or Wordsworth's 'love is an unerring light,' but I'm with Shakespeare on this one: 'My love is as a fever.' This view of love as illness isn't a cynical one, it's romantic. | | | Maybe it's more romantic to say that the love that leads to marriage is a chronic illness, like asthma or diabetes. | | | Love isn't heaven, or unerring light—it is a sickness. |

| | Amazon.com: DVD: Just Married (2003) |
| | Just Married has a sprightly script that keeps one foot on the ground (unlike some recent romantic comedies that seem to have no connection to reality) and one eye on the small ways in which lovers can get on each other's nerves. | | | The story of two mismatched individuals meeting each other and, after trials and tribulations, overcoming their initial dislike of the other person only to fall in love is older than both the motion picture and modern literature. | | | With the DVD release of 20th Century Fox's romantic comedy "Just Married" however we are treated to a slight twist on the storyline. |
