The correct answer is, that, according to Sternberg theory of Love, Jessica and Matt are experiencing the Romantic Love type.

Acording to Sternberg and his triangular theory of love there are three components of love that can be viewed as forming the vertices of a triangle: Intimacy, Passion and Commitment; where intimacy is the feeling of attachment, closeness and connectedness; passion, refers to the physical attraction and related forms of arousal a person experiences when he or she likes someone; commitment, ties the two together with short-term or long-term decisions to remain with one another.

Those three components of love, according to Sternberg, generate eight possible types of love: Nonlove, Friendship, Infatuated love, Empty love, Romantic love, Companionate love, Fatuos Love, and Consummate love.

According to the description of each one of those types of love we may conclude that Jessica and Matt are experiencing the Romantic Love type because this kind of love is a combination of intimacy and passion, a relationship that involves physical and emotional bonds. What we know is that Jessica and Matt spend long periods of time talking and sharing their interests and feelings towards each other (Intimacy), and also are experiencing physical atraction and those sources of motivational like kissing more and for longer periods that lead to the experience of passion.
