This is a neurotransmitter.
This is a neurotransmitter, it sends signals between the cells in your brain, and affects your behavior.
The second aspect of romantic love is attraction, influenced by a neurotransmitter called dopamine.
This is a feel-good substance released in our brain that is involved in driving us towards reward. Do something. Get a dopamine hit. Feel good. Eventually, dopamine will push us towards repeating that behaviour. This is why intense attraction feels like an addiction to another human being. Some people get stuck in that loop, always chasing the dopamine-soaked excitement of a new relationship. This time, the hormone responsible is dopamine, a neurotransmitter that rewards our attraction to someone with pleasurable feelings. That's why dopamine is called a feel-good substance. The adjective feel-good can be used to describe anything causing happy and optimistic feelings about life – things like feel-good films or feel-good music.
