The type of love exemplified in this scenario is mania. This is characterized by obsession, possessiveness, and a need for constant reassurance and attention. Marcos's behavior of calling Ben several times a day and feeling devastated when Ben couldn't attend his phone call suggests that Marcos has an intense, all-consuming, and at times irrational love for Ben.
