What is love? New qualitative research identifies three main factors: positive responsiveness, authentic connection, and a sense of stability.

By using two different groups with diverse subjects and checking to see how much their answers overlapped, they explored the question, “How generalizable are the main components of romantic love across different demographics?” This second question is especially important in establishing whether any findings might be relevant beyond the current research.—positive responsiveness to needs, authentic connection, and a sense of stability.
The underlying categories here were being dependable and unconditional. Dependability was about “always being reliable and trustworthy,” and being present in times of need by, for example, being a good listener, bolstering, and checking in when things are hard. The unconditional regard of stability included doing what was needed without expectations, and acceptance, regardless of flaws, of who a person is without trying to change them.
