12 - Science of love

You read that right, there is a science to love. It may sound complicated (it is) but it's also quite simple.
Love is what keep us humans existing and reproducing. There has been a study that revealed the three stages of love which are lust, attraction and attachment.

Lust is the first stage of love and is driven by testosterone and estrogen.
Attraction is the second stage of love and this is driven by the hormones adrenaline, dopamine and serotonin.
The third and final stage is Attachment. This is driven by oxytocin and vasopressin.

It is true that love is one of the most delightful feelings ever. It is also true when they say that 'love is blind' for you never know when your brain will encounter love but the words 'the heart feels' or 'my heart is breaking or hurting' is a lie, the heart does not feel, the brain does. This has been a common thing and it seemed to be 'right' but it is not.

If you still want to know more about this subject then I recommend you to watch this video.
