Love
Love makes the world go round... No one compares to the one you love, they are simply the best. It is widely agreed that you cannot help who you fall in love with and sometimes the road to true love is very rocky, but love always finds a way!
Does love at first sight exist?
US scientists believe it does: Researchers at Ohio State University found we decide on what we want from someone within the first minutes of meeting them. Johnny Depp claims to have fallen in love with Vanessa Paradis when he saw her across the room, before they had ever exchanged words.
Falling in love usually involves three stages:
Lust: Your hormones cause you to go searching for a mate.
Attraction: Brain chemicals serotonin, dopamine and adrenaline ensure your heart is beating fast, your palms are hot and sweaty, your appetite has vanished and your attention span is very limited.
Attachment: If your romance reaches this stage bonding hormones oxytocin and vasopressin with encourage trust and commitment. Oxytocin is released during sexual intercourse, which establishes the more often a couple make love the deeper their connection and bond will be.
