Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The commitment component of Sternberg's triangular theory of love refers to the decision to remain in the relationship for the long-term and the willingness to work through challenges and conflicts. Richard proposing marriage to Cara is a clear indication of his intention to make a long-term commitment to their relationship. The other options - infatuation, lust, and passion - refer to other aspects of love but do not capture the idea of commitment that is reflected in Richard's proposal.
