When I was young, I always wondered if LOVE is just a biological reaction to some chemical substance secreted by the brain when you meet someone you like. And of course after failing multiple times to "help" the brains of girls I liked to secret such substance, I quickly retreated to the safe haven of computer world and never thought about it.
Now I read the article and wonder the same question: Is there a way to recreate the experience of love by agitating the brain to secret certain chemical substances?

- meowface 5y agoOxytocin nasal sprays may be able to temporarily induce a portion of this feeling, for some.
- ciphol 5y agoThat idea is called "aphrodisiacs". Many have been tried throughout history but I don't think any of them really work.
