That would be Ludus mixed with Eros, with maybe a little Philia thrown in. 3/6 kinds of love.

That would be Agape - love for everyone.
I thought the article explained all this?
Hmm, okay maybe this will explain it.
Can we use the term love for feelings that are not super intense? I feel like the term "affection" works well to essentially describe the feeling of love but with less intensity. Sort of like how saying you are angry is a less intense form of rage. The thing about the article you posted is that it doesn't distinguish in terms of intensity and uses the term love for feelings that may not be intense enough to fall under that definition.

If you love someone you should let him/her know.
Love you all.
