Perspective On People In Love

People in love usually say with conviction
That they never love anyone else so deeply again
But after breaking up they can always find someone new
Who they think is their true love
Always feels lonely in a crowd and miss places for nostalgia
However, they'll never feel so scared to leave someone again.

People in love feel impulsive, passionate and insecure
They also find it hard to think straight
They feel that way because dopamine and other hormones in their bodies 
Keep their minds on the person who triggered all those feelings
As a result, their brains are left
With little energy to focus on themselves.

Hello Hugo, I agree with the first verse. I do think this is true. Yet some couples fall out of love only to return to theri girlfriend from the past. Thinking the sparks are still there. Love you more. /Darlene/

I based my observation on Chinese drama about how people in love so carelessly. Conviction is a sure promise not to fall in love, if the right person comes along. But, as human feeling fails, everything goes to break up. The rest is longingness on happy moment as recollection of past love. However, when there's a chance to reunite then second chance is sweet as ever that the first. Love you more, Darlene./Hugo.
