Aww.. Just wanted to share with everyone I have a new girlfriend and she is so gorgeous and beautiful and I'm totally smitten! Everything is new and exciting.. I love this part of the relationship!
Does anyone out there believe that it can last long term? (The feeling of "ahhhhh  " in terms of a relationship. Or does everyone think it fizzles at a point? Cesca |

the initial infatuation is hormone driven
When two people fall madly in love, the brain’s pleasure centers are activated causing the release of few chemicals-dopamine, pheromones and serotonin. These chemicals are directly responsible for excitement, increased heart rate, lack of appetite and sleeplessness. Oxytocin, now dubbed as the ‘hormone of love’, or the ‘cuddle hormone’ is a chemical produced by the hypothalamus in the brain and released by the pituitary gland, in response to certain environmental triggers such as stimulation of the cervix during sex, skin to skin contact, during childbirth or even during nipple stimulation in lactating women. The testes of men and ovaries of women also produce this hormone. -MedIndia it's when those hormones are depleted and you are reduced to a relationship between too people that the real work of the relationship begins BUT, in the meantime enjoy it cause it is GREAT feeling |

That initial exciment fizzles. If it reignites after a year or two then you've got yourself some real love Amazingly enough, I understood all of that technical/ medical terminology. (I should hope so after 4 years of studying Anatomy & Physiology...holy canolli lol =o) |

That being "in love" thing really is wonderful. It's all about if and when it changes to real love that isn't chemically induced.

I dated a guy for three years. I had butterflies in my stomach every time I talked to him, every time his car pulled in the drive, every time he touched me or kissed me.
It never waned or faltered. |

So nice when that happens. I've had that before. Not often, but it has happened. Lucky us.
