What's up, dude?

What's going on, man?

You know what I've been reading about lately is love.

I've been trying to learn more about the concept of love and the science behind love.

And the psychological perspective on love. Trying to unweave the rainbow, as some would say. That's very you. I got literally yelled at by one of Natalie's friends this weekend because he thought I was too analytical about stuff. Yeah. Like this. Like, what is love made out of? Yeah. You know, people say that phrase, like, hey,

you're over-analyzing things. Like, don't over-an-like, I don't even think that makes any sense to me. I'm like, what is over-analy? That's an analysis. Can you over-analyze something?

different things, right? I could say, I love you. You're my brother. I could say, I love my

kids. If I had kids, I could say, I love this candy bar. I could say, I'm falling I'm falling in love to somebody just like two weeks ago. We have the term platonic love and romantic love. Right. So you start getting into more specifics, but like generally people just say love and it's very vague. So the triangular theory of love, imagine a triangle, so there's kind of three different incarnations of love. There's intimacy, there's passion, and there is commitment.

So intimacy is like this feeling of warmth, wanting to be like next to somebody, enjoying their

presence, just being really close and open. And the comfort that comes from knowing that you and
