Based on "Sex before Sexuality", the different types of love in Marie's stories include:
Romantic love - there are different portrayals of romantic love like that between a knight and a queen in the story of Guigemar.
Courtly love - Marie makes various attributions to courtly love in her stories and courtliness is a major theme in her works.
Adulterous love - There is a portrayal of adulterous love as her stories expound on extramarital affairs; like in the story of Equitan, where the king has an affair with his seneschal's wife.
