Question

Is falling in love REAL or simply a chemical reaction in the BRAIN?

lernulo · Answer

I needed the update to decide.
Chemical reactions are involved but those aren't the only involved if it were like that I could use some chemical product to use with it and I would become millionaire just to a gold digger uses that product with me and I would give her all the money.
Now seriously, there are many factors to take into account and I would say chemical isn't the most important.

MrQuick · Answer

Yes. Both. Being a chemical reaction makes no less real. Nearly every emotional response experienced is directly correlated with a chemical reaction, i. e. hormones. Without the appropriate responses, some sensory information be would just about pointless to experience.

Syrian_survivor · Answer

Chemical reactions are real, and falling in love is more than one of those, there's the chemical reaction of love, commitement, loyalty, respect, care, protection, and wanting a good stable happy life, chemical reaction of the pursuit of happiness pretty much.

All those are only a small part of falling in love, and if they're true, they'll stay there.

Evil_Chuck · Answer

It's a very real chemical reaction at least, real enough that we suspend our better judgment and alter our lives to fit around the other person, and therefore it is not to be trusted. Apparently it's great while it lasts but then it ends, often painfully, leaving you to pick up the pieces. I'd rather just opt out of the whole cycle.

SketchForger · Answer

All of our thoughts and decisions are a chemical reaction, especially since sexual dimorphism in our species both hinders and increases emotional connection. It's a combination of emotional infatuation and sexual arousal.

Basically, at the core, a romantic partner is just a best friend you wanna fuck. There's a reason people refer to a couples compatibility as "chemistry."

samael_kmarty · Answer

It's both actually real if you believe in it and chemical reactions inside brain.
All animals looks for a mate.
In a certain age, which makes sense right!.
Falling for someone are urge to mate, and humans are social so we want to know more about them which brings curiosity.
All in all chemical reactions are responsible.

DocilexElle · Answer

LUST is a chemical reaction.

Love happens when you accept the person's flaws, pros and have the same goals/dreams. You deal with problems when it gets tough. You see them for who they are and you STILL want to be with them.

Levin · Answer

The answer is simple to the scientific materialist.

All lofty emotions have a basic biological root ie It's a ruse to ensure lifelong mating bonds for the furtherance of genes.

Therefore, love is not real.

Giggletr0n · Answer

It's all chemical reactions, emotions are just that and nothing more. What makes love something more is the effort you put into to.

karangill · Answer

Depends. If you're emotionally healthy then love would form as a real thing. But if you're mentally unstable, love would be a form of insecurity. Sometimes to most of us, love is the familiarity of crap we went through when we were kids, either through parents or someone who smothered us in an unhealthy way. But to answer, love can't happen without associating happy hormones and triggered hormones since that's the only thing that make us want to spend time with the person who we "love".

Bantoo · Answer

It depends what do you adress love as.
When you love a humanbeing, a child, the nature, an animal, the Almighty it's real

When you love someone that has some sort of compatility criteria or that someone qualifies to some terms and conditions in your thoughts its chemical flux.

megaman242 · Answer

Well it starts with looks so that the pleasure of taste, the biological part is part looks but how they smell and all that stuff. Then come personality and what you admire and all that. So I would it say it's purely chemical, but it's part of it. Sometimes you get attached to someone that you have nothing in common with and are totally wrong for you, so that's the chemistry. But the rest must be there or there would be no value in it.

oddwaffle · Answer

Mostly a chemical reaction.

Once the honey and sweetness pass, what you have would be family.

It's not going to be explosive or hot or insatiable, just family. You stick together. You fight each other but you will stick together.

PinkBerryPicker · Answer

Everything is physics, and predetermined by the past. Of course love is a chemical reacion and stuff. You don't *see* or *sense* any feelings do you (?), exept chemicals in teh brain. Fate is real and is constantly proven to be true by the way.

MrKinktastic · Answer

Given that your entire conscious experience is created by chemical reactions in the brain I don't exactly see how that discounts its realism. It is a chemical reaction in the brain and that is what makes it real.

MaverickAngel · Answer

Love as romanticized is a chemical reaction.. Commitment (end game of "true" love) is a choice. The answer? The chemical reaction should be worth the commitment?🤷‍♀️

SoulfullWanderer · Answer

Falling in love may be a chemical reaction, but staying in love is a choice.

My grandparents were married sixty eight years before my grandfather passed away this past month, and they loved each other dearly until the very end.

anmari2001 · Answer

It's connected, our soul and our body work things out in one big hot mess

Random_Guy_Online · Answer

What's your definition of real? If anything, the fact that it involves chemicals in the brain proves that it's real! There's nothing magical about it, if that's what your asking, so it involves chemicals. It's a natural, real thing.

dorathexxx · Answer

I think that falling in love is something one person does- rising in love is something that couples do- but in my experience it’s virtually impossible for 2 people to share the same interest in one another at the same time... and even if they say they do... one person is almost always lying.

dublin_sexyeyes0 · Answer

The chemical responsible was isolated about 8yrs ago i forget its name.

Deydey12345 · Answer

Its real... I can love people for real.  I can love my son and my future husband. Its a different love that i have for different people.. But its still luv.

HarleyQuinnirl · Answer

That is a tricky question a chemical reaction is technically real and so is love

Anonymous · Answer

I feel like the attraction and giddiness about another can be more a chemical reaction, but actually falling in love seems real to me.

Anonymous · Answer

Lust is probably the chemical reaction part that usually doesn’t last long just like when you say things during sex you probably don’t really mean but it’s during the moment, real love stays with you and hurts when it’s over

jack151 · Answer

Wait... If a Chemical Reaction occurs... & It is really happening & Being Experienced... Isn't that Still considered "Real"?

WingGirl · Answer

Love is a development of affection over time. Trust, mutual respect, comfort and attraction are all key components and are all needed to keep that bond. One without the others is not fully love.

FakeName123 · Answer

Hen and egg. The question is - does the chemical reaction cause the love? Or is the love the cause of the chemical reaction?

Also thereis the question if there might be different kinds of love that need to be differentiated.

Xavixk · Answer

Dont know why it being a chemical reaction would somehow make it not real... It's not magic, if thats what you mean.

Hurlyburly · Answer

Everything what you feel and expirience is basically a chemical reaction in your brain... It doesn't make it less real.

EmbraceThePain · Answer

I’d say everything is a chemical reaction in the brain. Love is a chemical reaction in the brain, specifically to better facilitate evolutionary means related to mating in my belief.

Inexpensivefurniture · Answer

Aren't all emotions just chemical reactions in the brain? Just because it's a chemical reaction, does that make it any less real? Fear and anger and happiness are all chemical reactions too

America1st · Answer

It's real. Being in love releases several chemicals in the brain. They don't increase before love hits.

Juststrollinagain · Answer

ugh the age old question what is love... baby don't hurt me, no more... <.3

ImagineSketchy · Answer

It's definitely a chemical reaction in the brain like most feelings. They are all generated through the nervous system and the feeling of love is no different.  However it sure can feel real.

Lost12100 · Answer

I’m unlovable reject that no girl wants more than a friend

Anonymous · Answer

It’s a chemical reaction in the brain for sure!

Because if falling in love with people was real. There wouldn’t be so much abuse and infidelity in most relationships!

If you were really in love you’d feel your partners feelings like your own. So it’s not real if you can hurt your partner!

ChefCurry · Answer

Love is bullshit to sell you dumb ass shit to buy for someone who doesn't need it. Like diamonds and chocolates or flowers. You wanna know what love is? Having respect for yourself and those who treat you with the same kind of respect.

Anonymous · Answer

If you just concentrate on the feelings caused by the chemical reaction, then the relationship has no future and will break down when you stop feeling the feelings (the chemical differences only last for a while in most people). True live is about choice - you actively choose to live for the other person and do sacrifices, even on days when you don't feel anything.

JoyISok3 · Answer

I wish this question would just disappear already. It’s been on my feed for like 30 years

21browngirl · Answer

Falling in love is a crazy feeling.. It can't be explained.. if its just a chemical reaction it would have been easy to get out of love

Benoniy · Answer

Can't it be both? Isn't a chemical reaction something real and physical? It's not like you fall in love with everyone and maybe that makes it inherently special.

anupamagrawal · Answer

It sprouts within brain to due chemical reaction. And it is indeed real reaction. Why to bother, enjoy love

ScholaryTeen · Answer

Literally every emotion and thought you have ever had was an electrochemical reaction in the brain. That doesn't make it any less real.

Im_curious_lmao · Answer

Just a flaw of humanity. Love can be sweet but it never lasts forever. It’s nice but only to break you down in time

ThinkerShell · Answer

Mate... The issue I see here is to consider whatever is scientific like a mechanism and out of meaning Why? love is real, and what a chemical process in our brain have to do with it to make it unreal?

kris1107 · Answer

It cause the secretion of dopamine that gives a temporary euphoria feeling and also the sex that makes you feel better and satisfied

Maddyjojo_1798 · Answer

Definitely a chemical reaction. I gave up on the whole “true love” bullshit long ago because it simply doesn’t exist

BeMuse · Answer

Is fire real or is it a rapid oxidation of a material in the exothermic chemical process of combustion?

dragonfruitA · Answer

It doesn't matter, as long as you're happy and virtuous. Without the ability to love or care for another, are you even human?

MackToday · Answer

I've wondered about this quite a bit. It drifts a bit into the ghost in the machine territory. I think it is real love but certainly colored by a certain lens.

SHH21899 · Answer

I believe love is real just rare to find a partner that you just click with and are willing to stick with it

SirRexington · Answer

Even if it is a biochemical reaction that doesn't mean love isn't real. If anything it explains how love works and why it's so important and innate in us to want to fall in love.

AustinMan · Answer

Everything we see, hear and feel is biochemistry but that doesn't make it less real if real means it's there.

emmily2396 · Answer

It is real, I still love people i haven't seen in a long time. I never fell out of love. If you fall out of pove you never felt love, you just felt physical attraction

HotJealousy · Answer

Chemical reaction that causes the feelings, so the feelings are real, but caused by the chemical reaction

Bluemax · Answer

Every single emotion we have is a chemical reaction in the brain. This does not mean they aren't somehow real.

wolfsugar · Answer

I think that person you'd fall in love with (mostly) you'd remain in love with, I think it's real, I also believe in the chemical reaction but god that one person (if you truly love them) would always be the reason those chemicals keep happening.

thelokisniper · Answer

its a chemical reaction triggered by several different kinds of stimuli, in short its not a simple answer. However, I do believe that true love is real and there is only one person that we are really compatible with.

crazy8000 · Answer

Try that it has enough with parameters triggered.

Many misses one key part to totally fall.
That the other one also have to seal it to trigger the last one. humans can feel that one since it is sub communication through energy.
