According to Sternberg, your grandparents who have been married for 50 years, go everywhere together, are kissing and hold hands quite a bit in public, are experiencing consummate type of love. The consummate type of love is combination of all three components of love, that Sternberg defines in his triangular theory of love:passion, commitment, and intimacy.
