- Monogamous relationships exist throughout the animal kingdom.
Swans, penguins, wolves, gibbons, ducks, foxes, mountain lions, and eagles are all monogamous, just to name a few.
- It only takes up to 4 minutes to decide whether you like someone or not.
The decision is based mostly upon body language, specifically: 55% on body language, 38% on tone of voice, and only 7% on what the person is actually saying.
- Love is a natural medicine
Holding hands with someone you love can alleviate physical pain as well as stress and fear.
Cuddling releases natural painkillers. Even looking at a picture of a loved one relieves the pain.
- Heartbreak isn't just a metaphor
Being rejected sparks strong activity in the parts of the brain associated with physical pain. Deep emotional distress triggers the brain to distribute certain chemicals that significantly weaken one’s heart. This condition is called the Broken Heart Syndrome.
- Butterflies in the stomach are real.
The feeling is actually caused by adrenaline, which floods your body during flight-or-fight response situations.
What the world needs now is love, sweet sweet love.
So keep spreading it :-)
