Love at first sight has nothing to do with your heart and everything to do with chemicals in your brain, UW Medicine says.
The feeling of love is really chemicals like dopamine and serotonin flooding your brain,Two people ‘fall in love’ and get engaged within months, but really they’re just feeling the chemical oxytocin, UW Medicine explained. On Valentines Day, people give the heart all the attention when it should be given to the brain.
Zweifel explained that a lack of those chemicals might leave someone feeling sad on Valentine’s Day. Chemicals can also show why people impulsively love and fight. If people see someone they like, their brain floods with serotonin and if things keep going well the brain will continue producing that chemical, he explained.
Mixed with physical touch, which can bring oxytocin to the brain, people are able to become attached and form bonds, he said.
