Well - as a man, I found a lot of common ground in what was being said here. Having been connected to someone (and married) for over 17 years before being widowed, there is a great deal of truth in what Helen spoke about. Not sure I agree totally with everything, but in essence plenty to get your head around and teeth into. Thanks for getting me thinking. We all need to stretch ourselves - where's the fun in just blindly walking through life without a challenge?

Well, this brings me to question; Do you love your Mother or Father? If yes, what would one or both rejecting you, do to your brain. I've met a lot of people in my life who've had a parent reject, or be unable to love them, it messes them up for life on a fundamental level. I feel it worth mentioning this is happening at a higher rate of speed then in previous generations, especially as the number of single mothers and fathers increase. If some random stranger you barely know has that much of an impact on your brain, what kind of damage have we been doing to our kids for years?

Those children who experience this effect of - non attachment - (love) from their parents, ... do so because THEY are 'children of convenience'... the Kapture Kids,... the result of a woman getting pregnant to ensnare the intended PROVIDER male,... a few years later & she RESENTS the man and the kids, because she NEVER really loved him,... he was just the best OPTION FOR SECURITY AND PROVISION at the time. . Women do not have children as an 'animal instinct',... otherwise they would be pregnant yearly from puberty to menopause,... they do so (erroneously) WHEN THEY THINK IT BEST SUITS THEIR NEEDS. . NOTE: It is rare for a PROSTITUTE to become pregnant,... because it would INTERFERE with her 'work'(?) .... There are no 'miricale kids'... EVERY woman knows when she's 'TRYING' even if her partner doesn't. (women LIE or by omission - KNOWINGLY - let a partner or STOOGE - bring up a child that SHE KNOWS is another mans ) . .

I think this generation are better at expressing our love than previous generations who showed less emotion to the point ' children should be seen not heard' just an example. My mum always said to me I taught her to hug & show love. I'm also a single mum & possibly shower my children with love from guilt that they don't have a typical family unit. I have friends with adopted children the damage of being unwanted/loved in the womb is unbelievable, being a mum I find it hard to conceive not loving my children but it's an interesting question you asked and an area that os not looked into enough! It takes alot to get past childhood trauma as an adult but also I like to think it doesn't define you! 🥰

I absolutely loved this talk, separated 3 years from a long controlling marriage. I feel stronger & more in touch with myself I'm 42 & feel like I'm living! I have been in love with two men, I believe nobody can can be everything for one person, one was a mirror image of me personality, the other the complete opposite & both filled a hole in different ways. People have so much to learn from each other & it's more the care you feel for someone, also the impact they have on you. In a monogamous relationship, there are rules and insecurity we miss out on many relationships (not sexual) for fear of hurting the other & how it may come across. I'm happy not committing & experiencing many types of love 💕

Men and women whoever you are, find out your strengths and weaknesses, follow your strengths and work around your weaknesses. Don't let the media, your neighbour, your peeps or your family decide what is good for you. Decide it yourself and you will have a happy, successful, life. Know that there is hard work in front of you, and just sitting and thinking that you will be happy will not make you happy at the end of the day.

Helen Fisher is spot on at 20:35 about 'Why it is that you fall in love with one person rather than another'. I fell very deeply in love with a prof the first time I saw her as a student. - I was new in town, it was the first day at university and everything was very exciting to me (high dopamin level) - I didn't knew her before (mystery)(high dopamin level) - She matched traits of my childhood (similar looks) - I was sitting randomly very near to her, we had direct eye contact (proximity)

Speaking as a social science student, it is quite an interesting talk by Helen, as she proposed (more than) several intriguing facts about the science of love and relationships. Nonetheless, morals and wider sociological issues surrounding the notion of "love" that influence how we perceive love should also be taken into account, beyond those facts and figures and hormones.

Really interesting. Feminism has contributed so much to the world, but especially in psychotherapy over the last few decades in regards to helping overcome the prejudicial language and structure of traditional therapy, the limitations of the DSMV diagnoses and elegibility criteria which pathologized responses that were different to those of the dominant white, male, hetero group they were normed on, and now Helen fisher's reflections on gender differences in love and sexual expression reminding us of the need to maintain that progress of taking a pluralistic approach to therapy, one of being being senstive to how gender and other aspects of our multicultural identities influence us to each experience things differently as opposed to the 'one-size-fits-all' approach that was used in traditional models prior to the influence of feminist therapy.

Interesting topic.Many good points. I was troubled, however, by a few statements . It is not a given that libido will suffer for one who is taking SSRI medication. It does happen, but not to everyone. When it does there are ways to offset the effect for many people. The recommendation for ongoing use of SSRI medication is for those who've had 3 or more major depressions (clinical depression) in their lifetimes. It is also not true that people on SSRI's are dulled or don't feel joy and excitement (dopamine rush). When SSRI's leave a person emotionally dull, it usually means that either it's the wrong drug or the wrong dosage. SSRI's are not helpful for everyone. When they are, people often say they feel 'normal' or 'like myself" sometimes for the first time in years. Please don't disparage medication that you're not fullly knowledgeable about it.

@13:45 - I've been saying this for years! Thank you! When someone suggests that men are more adulterous than women, I ask them if they think men are having their affairs with other men. Probably not very often, meaning women are just as willing to engage in affairs as men. At the very least, if they are not married, they are certainly not honoring the social construct of the marriage by having an affair with a married partner.

I don't see her discrediting the use of antidepressants for those who need them to make it through ""something they're going through, perfectly horrible; they want to kill somebody, commit suicide"" (18:47). What she says is she is worried about the effects of taking them long-term and become dependent on them.

I don't get why so many people say the talk has nothing to do with the title. She clearly explains where "love" comes from (the 3 brain systems, the evolutive process and reasons involving these systems are pretty much the reasons why we love) and why people are sometimes prone to cheat on their partners (if a person triggers the hormones associated with, say, two of your systems but not the other one, another person may). Of course, this is from the perspective of evolution/chemicals in your body. Social implications and moral codes are different, and she didn't approach them. I think the only reason why I would find the title misleading is because it's not specific enough.

Compatability of personality type is an interesting and thought provoking area of study. One theoretical system of personality, the Myers Briggs Personality Inventory, is food for thought. Not validated though which is one problem with that theory of personality.Nonetheless, in trying to understand WHY my own personal relationship of 38yrs with my partner has been so emotionally, intellectually, physically, etc. satisfying for both of us and successful , I have determined he and I are the same type in that system. We share so many general personality tendencies like introversion, a love of study, books, learning, we are both highly intuitive etc etc Baseline is that we "get" each other :how the other person thinks, feels, perceives, etc. We also share core values and have some, but not total ,overlap of areas of interest, which makes for a nice play of interests and things we can and have taught each other over a very long relationship---He has a BS in psychology and his other degrees are in subjects I know little about...my research and reading is mostly in my own field as well as history and literature, while he is interested in a much wider range of topics, thus we complement each other well. Emotionally too. We both use analytical thinking, rather than emotion, to make decisions. Yet we ARE emotional about each other. Good luck with your current work..I look forward to reading and hearing about it...a Ph.D- academic psychologist

It is amazing that Helen Fisher has taken to follow the theories of Imablicus and Cornelious Agrippa because it was them which establish such of theory but she Helen Fisher has prooven that the philosophers from the paripateric school were right at least about the location of the brain that is activated when love is being manifested; and that is in the center top middle brain or the pineal gland area. I know because I have read about the antiques philosophers.

Ecstasy ("love drug") doesn't induce romantic feelings or romantic love. It instead tends to evoke feelings more akin to cosmic or spiritual love. For the record, it's not a sex drug. In fact, it typically reduces sexual urges, contrary to what mass media likes to portray. I say this based upon both personal experience as well as the experiences that I've solicited from others. You could say that ecstasy evokes more of a desireless kind of love.

The divorce rate is "decreasing" because Men are less likely to marry, which means Men are less likely to marry more than once. This makes it appear as though the divorce rate is decreasing.

Great video. I would like to add that, IMHO, opposites might attract but, the attraction doesn't last very long. On the other hand, like minded couples who share their likes and dislikes, are the ones in which their lives together will have a lasting affect.

If you want someone else why not just say so to him before you act on it? One person can never OWN another person. Marriage as Lacan says, "is a contract between two people giving each other the exclusive and legal ownership to each other's sexual organs." gulp. No wonder Paris was furious with him. But isn't that what it gets down to?

a world without love is not a deadly place. Life is not about romantic love. And LOVE is not related to somebody else. Love is Love. It is unrelated. Being in love with someone is either lust or attachement. Nothing to do with Love. It s time we chose words carefully, otherwise we end up mixing everything up in our little head and jump up to stupid conclusions and non-sense, but still look smart in front of most and get away with it.
