Is “love” one thing or made up of different components?

The feeling of being in love feels like one thing. The one thing being “an intense attraction” for this other person that we are in love with. But underneath it all, love is actually made up of different components. Love is really a combination of the following: Need: You love the person because you need him or her for whatever personal reason. Compensation: You love the person because he or she compensates for the things you do not have. Unconditional Love: You love the person completely and without a doubt. For instance, if your subconscious mind finds that being with this certain person gets you in a good mood, it will make you feel that you love that person so that you stay close to him or her. It is important to note that even if real love is a combination of these three things, it has to eventually shift away from need and compensation towards unconditional love. This makes the love more real and paves the way for a healthy relationship.
