Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses. You build up a whole armor, for years, so nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life... You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' or 'how very perceptive' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a body-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. Nothing should be able to do that. Especially not love. I hate love. -Neil Gaiman

Yep! I was TOTALLY in love with my boyfriend of 8 years. That break up was the worst pain ever! But he did not love me, so I just could not stay with him any more. The pain of staying was as bad as the pain of leaving. Both pain is horrible- I did not have him either way. So best to move on and at least try to find a partner where love is reciprocated. 💗💗

wow.... I survived stage IV metastatic cancer, under the terrible strain of dealing what we were told was a terminal illness for such a long period of time, we broke up. I instantly shifted from continuously focusing on cancer to an obsession with "getting back together." When faced w/ my own mortality & a broken heart I focused almost entirely on my broken heart and it wasn't a choice, it was instinctive & powerful beyond description. I often wonder if that actually contributed to my survival.

I've been dating a guy for about 6 months now and he just dumped me too, his reason being "he has too much on his plate." I'll make it you guys, and so will you.

All those quotes in the beginning of Dr Fisher's speech really show us that love = pain. It's just biological that an obsession so strong leads to so much pain and grief. I'm still trying to find that sweet spot of deciding to "settle down" with the one. It was so easy for my parents to make that decision. They had an arranged marriage and just knew they wanted no one else. Why is it so difficult for me, with all the freedom of choice in the world, to get there?

Romantic love is your brain addicted to the chemicals produced by your brain when you are in love. How long it takes your brain chemistry to recover from the decrease of major neurotransmitters associated with being in love depends on how long your relationship has been manipulating your own brain chemistry. My own experience has been about one month for every year you have been in a loving relationship. I hope this helps.

13:36I ask you first a series of questions 13:40to see to what degree you express these chemicals, 13:43and I'm watching who chooses who to love. 13:47And 3.7 million people have taken the questionnaire in America. 13:51About 600,000 people have taken it in 33 other countries. 13:56I'm putting the data together now, 13:57and at some point -- there will always be magic to love, 14:01but I think I will come closer to understanding 14:04why it is you can walk into a room and everybody is from your background, 14:08your same general level of intelligence, good looks, 14:12and you don't feel pulled towards all of them. 14:14I think there's biology to that. 14:16I think we're going to end up, in the next few years, 14:19to understand all kinds of brain mechanisms 14:21that pull us to one person rather than another. 14:24So, I will close with this. 14:27These are my older people. 14:30Faulkner said, "The past is not dead, it's not even past." 14:35Indeed, we carry a lot of luggage from our yesteryear in the human brain. 14:40And so, there's one thing that makes me pursue my understanding of human nature, 14:48and this reminds me of it. 14:50These are two women. 14:51Women tend to get intimacy differently than men do. 14:54Women get intimacy from face-to-face talking. 14:57We swivel towards each other, 14:58we do what we call the "anchoring gaze" and we talk. 15:03This is intimacy to women. 15:04I think it comes from millions of years 15:06of holding that baby in front of your face, 15:08cajoling it, reprimanding it, educating it with words. 15:12Men tend to get intimacy from side-by-side doing. 15:15As soon as one guy looks up, the other guy will look away. 15:19(Laughter) 15:20I think it comes from millions of years sitting behind the bush, 15:25looking straight ahead, trying to hit that buffalo on the head with a rock. 15:30I think, for millions of years, men faced their enemies, 15:33they sat side-by-side with friends. 15:35So my final statement is: love is in us. 15:40It's deeply embedded in the brain. 15:42Our challenge is to understand each other. 15:45Thank you. 15:46(Applause)

My boyfriend has stopped talking to me so much, he said he is busy which i will not oppose and i understand but he goes to his work colleagues that I cannot go out with him and do the things he wants to do because of my strict parents. He's told them how there has become little to talk about with me etc. And most probably said I am boring which he has done 3 other times when this very same situations has happened. Learning how the brain works just really makes me want to let go of him. The brain is amazing and the way Helen explains everything is so intriguing. Everything is poetical it makes me want to do my own research and learn and understand every bit about the brain. I always adored our relationship. we were 15 now turning 18, it was a slow love and it was amazing, there is something about just growing up together and exploring love as kids which is fun. But things are becoming harder, and i just miss that once slow and non complex love we once had. I'm praying someday I will get that again

I've Had this girl on my mind for three months. We message each other but the problem is that she rarely messages back to me (worst case was waiting a month for her answer). You would think that she's only responding for courtesy and trying to avoid an open contact with me, but the nature of her letters are kind and she is sharing events of her life without reserve. Also, she is eager to know what is going on with my life; asking a lot of questions. I feel like my heart is soaking in acid every day I don't hear from her. I try to convince myself to forget her or to think that's she is stupid in some way, so I wouldn't have even a reason to hear from her at all. Yet, still I find myself thinking her at every moment and anything I do has little to no effect to that. She is, like said in the talk, camping in my mind. I wish I could control this suffering.

I've been there before, you're hung up on her. It sucks but you have to let her go. She is letting you down 'softly' but it can easily be seen as getting led on. It's a painful road, and for myself I didn't accept it until I saw my crush with her bf at a coffee shop. I was devastated but it brought me to reality. When you keep thinking of a girl, you are idolizing her. You cannot allow one girl to be put on a pedastal, no woman is worth that. Especially if they don't like you back. Get her off your mind, meet other women, and don't feel bad for yourself. When you look back at this moment you will realize who she really is, she isn't "the one" you are thinking of right now.

There's a saying that the hardest, most passionate love, is the "what if" love, the love that never happened, the love that lives in your imagination. You'll get over her soon. Perhaps in just about 10 months of so. Three months is nothing. Just eat well, make new friends, and go after activities you enjoy. Dopamine and endorphins will spread in naturally. That's pretty much it.

This feeling of comrades showing courage and standing side by side, showing support without words, must be deeply inbedded into men.

@nickmartin3647, nick, you asked if it was possible to live with the same intensity as you did the first time???? Good question! I had more or less the same experience as you, a dream brought memories of a long past loved one. It’s painful as if it were happening that time in the past again. The heartbreak is the same. The love for that person continues to be as intense, if not more than “yesterday “. Can you love with the same intensity? For me, no, I didn’t allow it to happen again because I didn’t want to go through the same suffering. But I’m not sure at all if one finds a person with the same charisma, virtues and personality, or even better, yes, it can happen, it’s difficult to tell. But the way that person made you feel is difficult to duplicate… one will always be comparing the new love to that old flame. Man, this is difficult and complicated. What do you think? Many years has passed since that old flame, new loves and steady ones have been in my life, but the old love cannot be forgotten … it’s vivid in my mind and a have a yearning for it again. It’s like something unique , divine and sacred. It’s madness, pure madness!

When we're not aware of our projections on a person we love, romantically and more, that person becomes unmissable, it's making us believe that without that person the world will come to an end. Until we're rejected, we're given an opportunity to enter grieving for what feels like a loss and start looking into a mirror showing us the empty space within, where, until it's touched by suffering, the present may show up that is wrapped in that package. Detachment with heart can be found at some point, where the other person, who seemed to be the only one, becomes a friend whom you pass by at a crossroad, smiling.

That was really interesting at the end about how women face each other while men sit side by side.

You get pulled towards the same attitude, understanding of life, knowledge and personality as well. This is why it's always extremely risky to fall in love. All of that stuff changes....and quite rapidly! It might have been possible in the 1800s and before, but now the person you fall in love with will not be the same person 6 months further down!

I thought that but I’d say it’s happened to me 7 times now. 4 were non starters that didn’t take off and 3 were the endings of relationships. There is no pain quite like it
