20 Funny Memes About Love That Perfectly Describe What's It's (Really) Like To Fall Head-Over-Heels In Love
All you need is love. Well, maybe not "all".
As partners and lovers, when you gaze into each other's eyes, your heart rates synchronize — when you are that in love with someone, your bodies biologically create a bond with each other. Cool, right?
When you are in a relationship, your bodies synchronize more than you necessarily think. Your blood pressure lowers when you are around your loved one.
On the flip side though, you are 35% more likely to become sick or ill if you are in an unhappy relationship. When you are in love, your body creates a connection, not only emotionally but physically. So, if you break up, that's why it's so hard to get over losing someone you love for any reason. It's because your bodies are connected.
Falling in love creates a sense of euphoria — cuddling makes your body release oxytocin, which is a hormone that appears in the brain that can mimic the effects of painkillers.
You know the days when you just want a hug and know it will make everything better? Well, there's the reason why. Hugs also give off the same hormones as cuddling, which lowers stress levels and moodiness. So if you are in need of some stress relief, then ask your partner for a lot of hugs. Win-win!
Looking at someone, even if it's just a picture, can even cause you to release oxytocin and release your pain. Oxytocin can also help relieve chronic disorders such as migraines or headaches. So, another reason why love and relationships are good for you.
And also when you are ill or in the hospital, being near your loved one helps you heal faster. You may even notice you will heal twice as fast as you normally would just by yourself. You could actually live longer when you are with your significant other for all of your life.
So with all of those amazing benefits of being in love, there are ups and downs all of us experience and can relate to, so look to these funny memes about love that will make you smile and miss the person you love most.
