♥♥♥ When you're in love with someone, your body gets through a whirlwind of phases, feelings and changes. Here's what science says happens to you when you've been hit by cupid's arrow! ♥♥♥


♥ The hormone testosterone increases, making you want to be your honey all the time


♥ There's a sudden drop in the amount of serotonin, the neurotransmitter or the brain's messenger responsible for keeping you sane. No wonder you're starting to act crazy in love!


♥ You can't sleep, can't eat, and you rather daydream all day and night about your lovey. You have the brain chemical norepinephrine to thank for that.


♥ Norepinephrine, the same hormone that makes you jump to your feet in an emergency, also leaves you slightly sweaty, and makes your heart pound three times faster when you're in love.


♥ You fell warm, giddy, energetic, and romantic, thanks to the elevated levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine.


♥ Because of this chemical cocktail in your head, your pupils get bigger (called dilation) and blood flows to your cheeks (translation: you blush), which gives you the sensation of butterflies in you stomach. Ah, amore!



There is a strong evidence that suggests that love is a series of Chemical Reactions.
