we learned about these in the marriage class at duquesne:

venus love:  based purely on the physical appearance.  will disappear over 
time.

eros love:  has more backing than venus love...personality comes into it a 
little more.  it is moving towards a friendship type of love.

phillia love:  the love one would have for a friend...the basis of this love 
is trust.

agape love:  unconditional love...which is absolutely unattainable for humans.
