Pheromones, romantic illusions and transcendence.
There is some scientific equation for love. The equation or formula is still not completely understood however its partially visual, auditory, olfactory, tactile and neurochemical.
Aparently 11 known animal species mate for life as opposed to ratio of humans that do... I do not have a number for that one (sorry).
Using magnetic resonance imaging to see how love affects the brain, they came up with his ludicrous 'result':
"The time taken to "fall in love" clocks in at about one-fifth of a second, not the six months of romantic dinners and sharing secrets some might expect."
Call me love sick or love less because it takes me at least 15 seconds to determine whether or not I want to talk to someone never mind like them.
We also have human creatures that confuse love with obsession or fixation and these individuals may suffer from OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). Ever hear of "erotomania" in which the sufferer has delusions that they have a relationship with another person, that the other person knows about? I wonder how long it takes a person to fall in love with a person that doesn't love them back! How GRIM.
People seek, find, fall in love for different reasons, hell we even have arranged marriages (not worth blogging about) I do know that I fear the possibility of meeting my 'match' (they call this Soumate) because I cannot fathom meeting another like myself. Have you seen the film Firestarter?!
