Thread: Falling in love... twice?

Yet, there are many cases where after the "madly in love stage" one of the two falls in love with somebody else, hence the chemicals reappear in the brain and the process happens again.

So, my question is, is it possible to "fall in love again" with the same person? Are the chemicals released only once for every person we meet, or can they be re-released in the future? If someone had been in love with a certain person in the past, can he fall for her again in the future? Or is this only a "one-time" situation?

This is very interesting, sis. Everyone is capable of or has kind of something to fall for more than one person. I do not understand the chemistry or biology of it. But I feel something between my buttocks and I like boys and though I am so much close to my boy friend. I always fantasize what men of muscle and power carry between his two legs and how lovely to see them with their pants off. I sound going astray. But I cannot help discussing with you all here on this wonderful forum
