A lot of research has been done on love over the past thirty years. These studies have tried to define love, make it functional and examine its relationships with variables. The majority of studies have focused on romantic love. Love for close friends such as family, friends and all humanity has not been a subject of study in general. The concept of compassionate love is a special type of love that focuses on the well-being of others. It is a broad concept within its elements such as interest, caring, helping and sacrifice towards all people, close or distant. Compassionate love cannot be reduced to concepts such as empathy, altruism, compassion. It is different from romantic love and more extensive than altruistic love. Compassionate love includes all humanity and shows continuity. Since it is a type of love that contributes to positive social behavior, it has been seen as an important type of love by researchers. In this study, the concept of compassionate love will be explained.
