Erotes

So, do you know what love is? It's when you really care about someone and you want to be around them all the time. Erotes is kind of like love, but more specifically it's about physical love or passion.

When people feel erotes, they really want to touch and be close to each other in a special way. It's like they have a special energy that makes them feel good when they're close, and they want to keep feeling that way.

Erotes is often talked about in stories and myths from a long time ago (like Ancient Greek stories). People thought that there were special gods and goddesses who were in charge of erotes, and people would pray to them for help with feeling these strong feelings of love and passion.

So, in short, erotes is all about feeling really passionate and close with someone, and it's been around for a long, long time!
