The 16 Lover Types
A lover type is a simple picture of how you show up in a relationship: how you give and receive affection, how you communicate, how you handle conflict, and how you balance closeness with independence. Type of Lovers reads those patterns from a short quiz and sorts them into 16 lover types, so you have clear language for the way you love.
The 16 lover types fall into four elements. Water types are emotional and gentle, Fire types are emotional and direct, Air types are logical and reserved, and Earth types are logical and practical. Each element holds four types that share an outlook but differ in how much space and structure they need, which is what makes the full set of 16 so specific.
