The Greeks have eight different words for love:
Eros (romantic, passionate love)
Philia (affectionate love)
Agape (selfless, universal love)
Storge (familiar love)
Mania (obsessive love)
Ludus (playful love)
Pragma (enduring love)
Philautia (self love)
I think they have it correct - there is no way our one word truly encompasses all of the meanings - or that one person would encompass all of the facets of love.
Love means some part of you belongs to someone else and that person handles it with care. And the other way around.
