"Eros" is sacred. It's being "in love"!!
"Pothos" is lust, desire.

"Agape" is what you use for the Corinthians verse. It can be for anyone you feel that towards, including family, friends and if you're really blessed (it seems) life partners.

I know of no third word. My Greek is fluent but limited.

Hi all, btw..



Hi Breezee, thanks for your answer. I think that's what I knew from before. In Greek there are three terms for 'love', agape, eros and pothos. And the type mentioned in 1 Corinthians 13 is agape.

Still, maybe room for eros and pathos too.

Ciao e Aloha~

Part of loving is letting go of the physical relationship if one/both are no longer satisfied. Often, much stronger bonds can be made and a new respect for one another as well as one >self< is possible.

buon fortuna!wave
