I hate to be the "remedial" one in the group, but I can't seem to find where Dr. Harley defines the two (?) types of love: emotional (romantic) and the other one, I can't remember . . . Can anyone help? My husband says he "loves" me like you would a mother, sister, best friend, whatever, but he's not in "romatic" love with me right now. Just trying to find the Doc's definitions. Thanks.<BR>Sooney

Hi Sooney...<P>What you're looking for is what Dr. H calls "<B>caring love</B>"...<P>A brief discussion of it is in the <A HREF="http://www.marriagebuilders.com/graphic/mbi6010_give.html" TARGET=_blank>"Give & Take: The Secret to Marital Compatibility"</A> book... pages 21-22.<P>basically...<P> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR><B>Caring love</B> is our effort to meet someone else's needs. The caring kind of love <B><I>does not</I></B> depend on one person having a certain balance in the other person's Love Bank. It has nothing to do with compatibility. You can care for people whether or not they have been effective in caring for you.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P> ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/smile.gif) <P>Jim
