When You Fall in Love, What Happens to Your Body?

When You Fall in Love, What Happens to Your Body?

This is due to the natural biological effects that love has on our brains and bodies, which can sometimes feel like an out-of-body experience. Love-struck but unsure when it’s happening? Your body changes when you fall in love.

  1. Dopamine burst

Your brain makes dopamine, which makes you happy. Eating chocolate or listening to music has similar effects. To avoid extinction, scientists say we need to breed to feel happy.

  1. The lust hormone rises

The love hormone is oxytocin, and it is present in all mammals. Oxytocin boosts attachment, trust, and safety feelings. That’s why you feel at ease with them. Oxytocin is released after sex, touching, and kissing, and it works to strengthen your bond while reducing your interest in other potential partners (source).

  1. Mood and sleep disorders

It’s difficult to think of anything else or to go about your daily routine when someone special is on your mind. It’s common to have a nervous stomach, a lack of appetite, and insomnia when you can’t get your lover out of your head (or crush).

  1. Enhanced sex drive — especially early on

The androgen hormones kick in when you’re single (especially during the honeymoon phase). Androgens like testosterone increase sex desire. Dopamine and oxytocin drive the cycle of sex. Why wouldn’t you want more of that? Doing dirty can also make you feel closer to your partner.

  1. When they aren’t around, you worry.

Sitting alone for an hour, a night, or a month with your partner can cause anxiety. You feel like a drug addict without your partner’s sight. When we are away from our partners, our bodies release corticotropin as a stress response.

  1. Your brain is more willing to give up when we Fall in Love

For example, choosing a paint color, having children, or moving to the other side of the country are all examples of sacrifices and compromises. The vagus nerve in our brain, which aligns and syncs partners, makes us more likely to make compromises for those we love as our love grows.
