“Romantic Love Is the Strongest Chemical Addiction,” Scientists Say

A new interesting study proves that the “love at first sight” exists! Scientists used functional magnetic resonance imaging to see the immediate effects that love has on our brains. The study found that love is the strongest chemical addiction. And the time that estimated to “fall in love” usually hits us in about one-fifth of a second!

• But what about all those months of dates before you drop the L-word?!

  
  It turns out that this all is just social convention. Months of dating will make you love someone more, but it’s the very beginning that we truly realise we have fallen in love with someone. 
  
  

  • How the "love at first sight" works?

    
    The "love at first sight" happens when waves of euphoria-inducing chemicals such as oxytocin, vasopressin, adrenaline, and dopamine spread through your brain. In short, love is a chemical addiction. 
    
    

    • Make it happen!

      
      So next time you meet someone in a crowded bar or club and find yourself transfixed, don’t just shrug it off. That person might be the love of your life.
