Chemistry decides everything.
Thousands of films have been shot about love, thousands of songs have been written. However, recent research proves that one person's attraction to another is the result of an evolutionary mechanism. Simply put, nature makes people love for humanity to reproduce.
In experiments on monogamous steppe voles, it turned out that three hormones are responsible for the female's attachment to a male: oxytocin causes tenderness and attraction to a male, endorphins are released during sexual intercourse, and the hormone dopamine forms a connection between sexual intercourse and pleasure in the mammalian brain. Do not think that people have moved far away from rodents. Other studies claim that true love and affection develop after the first sex.
A similar endorphin-dopamine connection is observed in the brain of a male, in the brain of a man in love, and in the brain of an addict. Having received a dose of endorphins from something (whether it's sexual intercourse, a lover's smile hinting that it is possible, or a dose of heroin), the human brain, like the brain of any mammal, will intensively strive for this action. This means that the irresistible longing for the beloved is only the work of hormones.
As for oxytocin, this hormone is produced in females in relation to everything related to the continuation of their kind, including their offspring. So not only pleasure, but also the desire to continue the family pushes a person to a relationship. Those female voles, to whom scientists artificially blocked the access of oxytocin to the brain, did not seek to enter into relationships with males, produce offspring and take care of what had already appeared.
The hormone vasopressin, the same hormone that prompts males to mark their territory, is responsible for craving for a female. This can explain the natural tendency of men to polygamy – they simply expand their territory. This also explains the desire to protect his chosen one, which is different from the desire of a female to protect her child.
If we transfer experiments on rodents to a more complex human society, a woman tends to choose one person to whom she will be attached and who will help her raise their common offspring. And a man tries to spread his chromosomes to as many women as possible. And how do they get along in this society? It's simple – both women and men are addicted to each other's touch, smiles, and presence, just as they are addicted to smoking. It will be difficult to break up.
