Abstract

Love, an intimate relationship in human society, has a special psychological meaning for everyone and enables each individual to get a sense of belonging, self-worth and the spiritual needs of love and being loved. Most of the current papers are focused on the educational level of the orientation and correction of marital values, and there are many gaps in the analysis of the psychological effects behind, which are far from meeting the current needs for the solution of the marital dilemma in China. This article adopts a literature research approach to explore the psychological problems faced by people in romantic affairs, as well as the causes, from a social psychological perspective. It will provide constructive help and reminders for coping with romantic psychological disorders at the social, school, family, and individual levels. The research finds that: in love, people are always easy to be attracted to the advantages of one side of each other, and indulge in love that cannot be controlled. However, they always have disputes over communication, break up for economic reasons, and often lose themselves in love. Unreasonable use or unconscious indulgence of the halo effect, compulsive repetition, sunk cost effect, Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory, Freud’s psychoanalysis theory, partners’ effective communication barriers, Lucifer effect, etc. are the psychological root causes of love problems.
