    First Agape

    When they help others, they can feel important and needed. However, if their help is not appreciated or rejected, it can lead to a loss of self-esteem and respect for their initiative. This can cause feelings of loneliness and uselessness.
    "To help-yes. This verb describes my personality very well. I love helping people, especially those close to me. It is important to support a person. More often it turns out that someone throws me a request, and I give him a concern in response. I always hear the call for help clearly and try to come running to help. I don't always want to care, but I consider it my duty to respond to the request in some way.

    ​About support... If someone complains to me, I immediately think about how to solve the problem and help with actions. As I see fit. After all, if a person needs help in something, then he is poorly oriented in this. And if I can help, then I'm better at it. I feel that I need help or the person just doesn't understand and can't give anything - I give. I am very offended when they refuse my help. Although I sometimes push too hard, I guess)

    I don't like to ask for help myself. It often happens that I am told "I need help" and I help, and not vice versa, I do not like to ask for help. I will never ask for more than I would give. I don't like it when I demand too much attention to myself. Sometimes I can't help but try to lighten the mood. It is better that the person immediately said how to help him."

    "I really love friendship, friends, a sense of unity. Although I do not show much initiative in friendship, I am always ready to meet them halfway. I take the initiative, but carefully, if someone gives at least a hint of "making friends" - I pick it up, and I can develop it. I consider myself an open person. Making contacts and interacting with people is very easy for me. Especially in the first days of communication. And I like the easy relationship of "unfriendly acquaintance". They may not always be long, but this is not terrible, because it is easy to start. I want to make new acquaintances, but most often if there are no suitable conditions for this, I do not take the initiative. I love it when people come from somewhere and I'm friends with them later.

    The serious concept of friendship is different. It may not take me even a year to call a person directly a friend. In general, I would not say that I divide by the trust of people. There are friends to whom I am drawn, and there are those to whom I am drawn a little less. With the latter, I respond more to their offers to spend time, if possible, while I prefer to "wake up" the former myself. It often happens that I trust too much those who would like it. But this is probably the result of my immense love for people. Everyone can be understood - my motto is hd because I easily forgive and easily trust. If I feel dislike openly, I retreat. If I just feel it , I feel sad, but I try to get it back."

    Third Storge
    It is difficult for them to understand how relationships develop and where they lead.

    "Oh my God, there is no hd To give options for development or correct in small things /discussions-please, but to re-educate – sooooo. Well, I think that an adult is adequate, he knows what to do. But at the same time, I don't need anyone to guide me, although sometimes I like to ask someone for advice, especially if the person knows a certain area better than I do.

    Sometimes I don't know what to do, so I ask for advice. I'm terribly confused in myself, but from the outside you can see better.

If I have any questions, then I'll ask for advice, so I don't need someone to guide me all the time.

    That's when at the university we start to say "this is how to do it well, and this is how bad" it just pisses me off, and I start to argue. Because there are no absolute criteria, a person is free to choose his own path, and some teachers at the university teach us about life. And I came purely for knowledge on the subject. It is important to me that the opinion has a decent support, for example, facts."

But as soon as the external source of sympathy runs out, their internal response weakens.
    "I don't like to express it, but my compliments are worth their weight in gold. I don't get too attached to anyone, usually. I just need to first wait for the signal that there is sympathy for me (I think I like confident and persistent), and I will show it in response.

    ​And it depends on who you accept it from. In general, who doesn't like to accept sympathy?) As everyone likes it, I think hd Likes it. It's really cool to feel like you're being liked. It is very important to show sympathy. Otherwise, I feel not accepted and out of place."
