    The idea of love is multifaceted and cannot be encapsulated by a single definition. It is considered to be both a universal concept and a personal experience or emotion. Love has been a topic of philosophical discourse dating back to ancient Greece. Simon May brings forth Socrates’ theory of what he thought love was in his book Love a History (2011) stating that love is “What we lack,” and “I [Socrates] find beautiful or good in what I lack” (46). Socrates’ definition of love can be seen as quite simple for something as complex as “love”, that: love is a desire for what we yet don't possess.

    For the ancient Greeks the word love has a variation of words to describe the various emotions that we label "love". These variations include: Philia (φιλία) which they saw as a deep but usually non-sexual intimacy between close friends and family members or as a deep bond forged by soldiers as they fought alongside each other in battle (Liddell, & Scott. 2010). Pragma (Πράγμα) is the mature love that develops over a long period of time between long-term couples and involves actively practising goodwill, commitment, compromise and understanding (Liddell, & Scott. 2010). Agape (ἀγάπη) is a more generalised love, it's about love for all of humanity. Philautia (Φιλαυτία) is self love (Liddell, & Scott. 2010).

    This proves that love was important to the Ancient Greeks because if the Greeks thought love was unimportant, their philosophers and poets would not have written so extensively on it.

Eros was romantic love, philia was friendship, agape was familial love, nomos was love as a form of submission, and storge was love that grew through familiarity. (Wallace 401-405).

Social psychologist Barbara Fredrickson argues in her book “Love 2.0: How Our Supreme Emotion Affects Everything We Feel, Think, Do, and become” that we have mistaken “love” with a phenomenon that she describes as “positivity resonance”. We are introduced to a new understanding of the very loose term “love”, by relating it to our body’s biological systems. It starts as a physical response from the body to positive interactions with others and makes us connect with our partner. Changing our perception of love can make our life simpler, as we realize that we have more control over it than we thought.
