This theory takes into account three different components which make up a loving relationship. The first component is known as the i intimacy part and this is what develops with feelings of closeness, attachment, oneness and connectedness to the individual that you are in love with. This element is also followed by the passion element and this outlines the sexual attraction within the relationship.
