A Typology of Styles of Loving

John Alan Lee

University of Toronto

Constructed ideal types differentiating between several con trasting conceptions of intimate adult affiliation ("love") were de rived from fictional and non-fictional literature. A new interview method was devised to enable individuals "in love" to reconstruct their experience in codeable form. The constructed types were tested and revised, producing a structured typology of readily distinguish able styles of loving. The salient characteristics of the six most significant styles are summarized.
