What type of love involves passion and commitment, but without intimacy? this type of love would apply to a "whirlwind" courtship where two people meet, fall passionately in love, and get married, all within a few weeks before they even have time to know each other well?

The answer is "fatuous love".


Fatuous love includes passion and commitment without intimacy. This sort of love would apply to a "whirlwind" romance where two individuals meet, fall energetically infatuated, and get hitched, all inside half a month, prior to they even have room schedule-wise to know each other well.

This love can go ahead rapidly, as in "love at first sight," and can last a while, yet except if Intimacy creates in the relationship, at that point the relationship will stay youthful and may appear to be disorganized, hyper, and is probably going to end in a disaster.
