What really makes a relationship last? Is it passion, intimacy, commitment, or some special balance of all three? In this guided discussion hosted by Lily, a practising psychotherapist, we’ll dive into the Triangular Theory of Love, developed by psychologist Robert Sternberg. This theory explores how love is not just one feeling, but a dynamic blend of three essential components that shift and evolve over time. Whether you're in a relationship, single, or just curious about the deeper psychology of connection, this conversation will give you powerful insight into how we love—and why._x000D_

We’ll reflect on our own experiences, explore the different kinds of love that arise when one or more parts of the triangle are missing, and ask: what kind of love are we looking for—and are we building it the right way? With Lily’s thoughtful guidance, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of love’s many shapes and surprises, while also hearing stories and perspectives from others. Come ready to learn, share, and maybe see your own heart in a new light._x000D_
