Lunch Hour: Are you also addicted to love?

Finding things within oneself is sometimes more difficult than finding a needle in a heap of sand.

I heard someone say, “I know I do desperately want to end this relationship, still I texted her two to three times yesterday. I don’t know, why I did it. There is something wrong with me?”

People in love, often are loving, intelligent, considerate and usually successful too. Still they struggle and doubt their ability to leave emotionally abusive relationships. Get out of a relationship if you are not respected or abused.

This is probably a realistic addiction just like alcohol or drugs or  gambling affecting. Nevertheless, this is a positive addiction. Our brain gets affected just like waves of dopamine or oxytocin, or any such opioid hormone triggering  brain’s pleasure center.

Love addiction is mostly related to a past history of abandonment. It also fulfils for the addicts their precious need of validation through cordial connectivity. It makes their self-esteem truly revived dramatically in life.

And yes for a love addict intensity in a relationship is almost meets the level of their intimacy. Thus, getting out of a love relationship gets real hard for them to do if one of them is not able to continue due to abusive behavior from the other side.

If you assume you might also be one such love addict then there may be some signs shown to you by yourself. One of the most usual sign about it keeping thinking about him or her. That shows she or he is like oxygen for your existence.

Mind it, being a love addict is always preferable than being zero-love-in life person. It sure will make you dependent upon someone but simultaneously it will keep giving you energy for loving and living life.

Thus the addiction of love makes you a real human being and that show neither are you a brut or a stone. There is a heart beating within you and you are a lovely soul for you are in love !
