Your Brain in Love(for steemit lover)
love can make you feel euphoric, foolish, happy, obsessed, distracted, passionate, exhausted and pretty much everything in between — so it should come as little surprise that falling in love does quite a number on your brain.
- Falling in love causes a major hormone rush:
This is the first stage of love and is driven by the sex hormones testosterone and estrogen – in both men and women.
2: Attraction:
Adrenaline
The initial stages of falling for someone activates your stress response, increasing your blood levels of adrenalin and cortisol. This has the charming effect that when you unexpectedly bump into your new love, you start to sweat, your heart races and your mouth goes dry.
Dopamine
Helen Fisher asked newly ‘love struck’ couples to have their brains examined and discovered they have high levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine. This chemical stimulates ‘desire and reward’ by triggering an intense rush of pleasure. It has the same effect on the brain as taking cocaine.
3.Love can make your serotonin take a nosedive:
Serotonin
And finally, serotonin. One of love's most important chemicals that may explain why when you’re falling in love, your new lover keeps popping into your thoughts.
four hormones that are important to understanding love. In the most basic sense:
Cortisol is a stress hormone
Dopamine seeks out pleasure
Norepinephrine makes you highly excitable
Serotonin is a mood stabilizer
Love can get in your brain and stay there for life. A 2011 study found similar activity in certain brain regions among longtime, happily married couples and among couples who had recently fallen in love.
You get all flustered when you're around them, your heart beats faster and your hands get all clammy.
Scans of the brain have been used in research which looks at the difference between sexual attraction and long-term love – both have been found to activate the nucleus accumbens (the brain’s pleasure centre) but only long-term love activates the insula.
You Can’t Focus
If your mind begins to dance around in circles and even focusing on something ordinary makes you crazy, blame it on your love. Being in love interferes with your brain’s ability to stay on task, says a study from the University of Maryland.
Oxytocin, also known as “the love hormone” affects our behaviour and how we think. This is a very strong hormone that is released by both men and women that creates a sense of attachment and bond between two people, whether it be a mother and her child, or two people in a relationship.
Love is the greatest and most complex human emotion. While everyone experiences love differently, everyone has the capacity regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, religion, etc. Love comes in many different forms and manifests in many ways throughout your life and relationships.
The saying is usually love at first sight, but your nose plays a part too. Pheromones, which are chemical messengers, are theorized—but not proven—to play a part in human sexual attraction. (They're major players in insect behavior.)

Unfortunately, what most people call “love” is just a mutual benefit scheme.
One day, a man named Shankaran Pillai went to a park. There was a pretty woman sitting on a stone bench there. He went and settled down on the same bench. After a few minutes, he moved a little closer to her. She moved away. Again, he waited for a few minutes and inched a little closer to her. She moved away. He waited again, and then inched even closer. By then she had moved to the very end of the bench. He reached out and put his hand on her. She shrugged him off. He sat there for a while, then went down on his knees, plucked a flower, gave it to her and said, “I love you. I love you like I have never loved anybody in my life.”
She melted. Nature took over and they had their way with each other. It was getting late in the evening; Shankaran Pillai got up and he said, “I need to leave. It’s eight o’clock. My wife will be waiting.”
She said, “What? You’re leaving? You just said you loved me!”
“Yes, but it’s time. I need to go.”
Very good post @mehdikh19. . . Full of love😊👍
It's a shame you can't get the feeling of falling in love on demand!
love can also bring to the soil, can calm the hard soul.
do not forget where I am
