The 6 Love Styles and How to Understand Yours

Have you ever wondered about the different ways we express and understand love? Or what is the secret to a lasting and happy romantic relationship?

In this video, we want to discuss a little about a theory known as the “Color Wheel Theory of Love”. Sometimes also known as Lee's (1977) love styles or love attitudes, this theory proposes that people love in different ways, which can be categorized into six broad love styles.

This love style not only characterizes our relationships with others but also how we feel and act towards our romantic partners. Here are six different love styles and how you can better understand yours.

Hope it is useful. Thank You
