of the feet; so my grandfather still put on makeup them the whole time when

On the other hand, in the man's relationships with their mean, the love can mean an or more than one of the following manifestations of the love, all them related in general ledger or pettier grade. For example:

Some languages, as the old Greek, distinguish among the different senses of the love better than Spanish. For example, in Greek old the words filia exist, eros, banquet and storge, which mean love among friends, romantic or sexual love, unconditional love and affective or family love respectively, or in Latin cupiditas like corresponding to the Greek eros (I want sexual) and faces like corresponding to the Greek banquet (empathy, altruísmo). However, so much in Greek as in many other languages, historically it has been very difficult to separate the meanings of these words in toto, for what is possible to find the word banquet (unconditional love) being used with the same meaning that eros (sexual or romantic love). However, some vulgar terminologies in Spanish as for example edge, originated of 'filia, generates hierarchies of seriousness or duration of the couple.
