Then they compared their MRIs to brain scans of individuals who had fell in love inside the past year. The outcome? Both test groups’ brains looked absolutely alike when they saw their loved one’s photo, and lit up like crazy in a portion of the brain that generates the feel-good chemical dopamine.
