Online Chemistry
When you meet someone you like in a video chat room, you can get the same feelings as when you meet them in real life, such as lust, infatuation and love. Scientists believe that a lot of the feelings we have when we are attracted to someone can be explained by chemicals in the body. For example, when we feel lust there are high levels of testosterone in our bodies. Dopamine makes us feel good. Norepinepherine gives us the sweaty palms and pounding heart of infatuation. Phenylethylamine and dopamine give us the rush of falling in love. And once we're in love, serotonin and oxytocin keep us in that blissful state. The next time you video chat and feel you have chemistry with someone, you might just be right.
