Biological links to falling in love
Anyone who wants to have no-strings-attached sex, it might be harder than you think. Our devilish brains have so many hormones to make us fall in love, it’s almost not even fair.
A study from the University of Pisa has revealed that in the initial stages of a relationship, our brains come to resemble those of people with Obsessive-Compulsive disorder- we are biologically obsessed with our partner. Research from New York University has discovered that there is even a “cuddle hormone,” oxytocin, that promotes attachment to one another, with more of the hormone released with every sexual encounter.
I’m not sure when they will be able to sell a pill version of oxytocin, but I sure know of several girls who would love to lace their boyfriends’ drinks with it sometime to make cuddling less of a chore.
