Interesting facts about love

Love. No word on earth causes such a thrill in the soul. Beautiful or unhappy, unrequited or "to the grave," it is she who can push people to unexpected and selfless actions bordering on heroism. And at the same time, how much pain it can bring, how many mistakes and madness has been committed in the name of all the same love. You can deny it, avoid, accept or fear, but there is no such person who would be indifferent to the mysterious and inexplicable feeling of love.


Entertaining psychology of relations

Famous connoisseurs of human souls - psychologists have long been trying to unravel the mystery of love. After long observations, they concluded that a man and a woman are twice as likely to fall in love with each other if they met in an extreme situation than in the case of a meeting, say, at work. But at the same time, the enthusiasts who have enrolled in search of love for extreme rafting on kayaks on mountain rivers are disappointed, because the feeling of love that has flared up in such unusual circumstances requires a constant supply of adrenaline and quickly fades in everyday life. No, the search for a reliable life satellite requires more attention. No wonder the people say: "Seven times, and once cut." Yes, this also has a direct relationship to love. Having carried out a statistical analysis, the scientists found out that a person, before meeting the one or only one to create a family, falls in love seven times. But even here the ubiquitous psychologists found pitfalls: it turns out that men and women often fall in love with partners, externally remembering fathers or mothers who were once unresolved problems in childhood. People intuitively try to solve children's problems when they are adults.

From the point of view of science

In the era of scientific progress, gentlemen scientists are constantly trying, with the help of their rational intellect, to unravel this and the truly secret secret of the human soul - love. For example, everyone knows that falling in love, we tend to idealize a partner. There was a completely scientific explanation for this, since in a man in love the patches of brain, responsible for negative emotions and making rational decisions, are in a state of sleep. This love euphoria on average lasts from one year to three years, so that the two have enough time to create a family, have a baby and take care of the baby at a time when he most needs protection. This, it might be said, is a prehistoric defense mechanism that provided survival for the human family. Maybe that's why there is a crisis of the fourth year of joint life, in which people are often divorced.

In general, as you already probably understand, love directly depends on the chemical processes in the human brain. A man in love is affected by dopamine - a substance that is responsible for the feeling of pleasure, it is it that activates those responsible for the "system of rewards" in the field of the human brain. It is significant that the same effect on these areas is produced by cocaine. So, theoretically, love can be equated to drug dependence, from which scientists have found a medicine called serotonin. He destroys the feeling of love, but the sexual attraction remains the same. The level of serotonin can be increased with the help of antidepressants.

A bit of history

Yeah, love is really an intricate thing, and if scientists are still trying to figure out the causes of this feeling, then the investigation, as they say, on the face. The history and the present are full of interesting incidents, which became love. From ridiculous to mystical, they can not indifferent anybody.

Imagine, when in the XII century Conrad III conquered the city of Weinsberg, he allowed the women to leave the city and take with them only what they could carry in their hands. Then the women were put on their husbands' shoulders and with them they left the city. So love saved hundreds of lives.

It is extremely enigmatic to call a coincidence when Pushkin dedicates the poem "I Remember the Miraculous ..." to Anna Kern, and in fifteen years Glinka puts these lines to music, dedicating her creation to her daughter Anna - Catherine.

Love is such a strong feeling that all life on earth is subject to it: people, animals, and even birds. In 2006, the female black swan Peter, who lived in one of the water basins in Germany, fell in love with a catamaran made in the form of a big white swan. Petra always swam by the sunset, when he made walks and even showed aggression to the keys that approached the empty ship. At the same time she refused to mate with males of her species. For this unusual novel people have been watching for several years.

Modern people tend to stand out everywhere, even in love. Probably, it was she who pushed the British pair to break all the records for the duration of the kiss. This kiss lasted a little more than thirty-one hours. In general, kisses, as it turned out, very useful thing, because men who kiss their wives in the morning farewell, live longer than five years. At the same time, 65% of people with a kiss turn their heads to the right. At the same time in the times of Rus', the French kissed the Tatar and the church strongly condemned it.

In the name of the law

Love rules the world, but the world, as it turns out, constantly tries to hijack it in its rights, while officially and at the legislative level. The greatest successes in this area have been made by Americans, some laws of which are more like anecdote. Judge for yourself. In the capital of American machine building, Detroit is forbidden to indulge in love in the car, but if the car is parked in the owner's territory, then the law loses its effect. In the town of Konorsville it is impossible to shoot at the moment of orgasm of the wife of the shooting. The law of Iowa prohibits making more than three sips of beer if you are having sex with your wife or carrying it in your arms. But who exactly does not beat the Britons for long kisses, so these are the lovers of Maryland, because they can not kiss each other for more than one second. In Minnesota, the prohibition of sex with vegetables. But on the note to the tourists who gathered in South Dakota, do not make love in the hotels between the beds, if you do not want to break the law. In one of the towns of the state of Virginia, you will necessarily turn off the light during sex, so as not to be on the dock. Yeah, it's terrible to imagine how they manage to monitor the implementation of these laws.
