This article explores Sternberg's Triangle theory in the context of
relationships. It breaks down the sections of the triangle as they relate to
different kinds of love: nonlove, liking, infatuated love, empty love, romantic
love, companionate love, fatuous love, an consummate love.
The factor of
balance comes into play as the actual shape of any given relationship triangle
is a direct reflection of the balance therein. For example, an ideal
relationship triangle would be equilateral--all emotional, mental, and physical
sides and angles of the relationship are equal within this shape. Overall, I've
concluded that communication is the only way to ensure the closest equilateral
balance in any relationship. When both parties of a relationship are fully
aware of the aspects of their particular triangle harmony is within
reach.
