Air ur idea or opinion without tagging it "ideal" ..... Saying it is ideal is like saying it is the best way, others doing it their way which is different from yours is doing it the wrong way

No sir. Ideal means something unique. It never means other things are wrong.

Time, time, time.

Love can make you have feeling of euphoria. Great, right? But it can also make you feel foolish, happy, obsessed, distracted, passionate, and exhausted. All these are some of the things love does to your brain.

When you fall in love with someone, a whole host of changes are taking place in your brain and body to create all that passion and euphoria. Some of the effects are however not so pleasant.

These are some of the effects of love normal human beings have:

1. Falling in love causes a major hormone rush. When you first fall in love, you experience a rush of hormones to the brain including oxytocin, the love hormone, the pleasure hormone dopamine, and sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone. Other hormones, like adrenaline, make the heart beat faster. This influx of hormones plays a major role in those intense feelings of fluttery excitement, attraction and euphoria.

2. Now, this is quite serious. Love can become an addiction. Falling in love can lead to cravings and obsessive thoughts, and the desire to spend every moment with your partner. That is obsessive. Now, neuroscience research has shown that love quite literally is like a drug: Falling in love activates the same system in the brain as cocaine addiction.

Romantic love is an obsession, as you may not be able to stop thinking about another human being.

3. Love can make you lose focus. Anyone who has been in love knows that it can be more than a little distracting, and now we understand why. Neuroscientists have linked passionate love with intense changes in emotion and attention, as well as reduced cognitive control meaning that you are less able to control your attention.

4. Love can strengthen your empathy and ability to process emotions. The type of love thats cultivated through the practice of loving-kindness meditation activates the brains empathy and emotion-processing centers, while also reducing activity in brain areas associated with self-focused thought. Loving-kindness meditation also gets us in touch with our feelings by increasing gray matter volume in brain areas associated with emotion processing.

5. Different stages of love can change your brain activity differently. A study published in 2018 in the journal Frontiers in Human Neuroscience found that MRI scans could be used to accurately determine what stage of romantic love a person was in based on their brain activity. While falling in love activates the brains reward center, breaking up decreases activity in the reward center, and also causes sharp decreases in activity and functional connectivity in a part of this center that's associated with expectation of rewards.

6. Love can get in your brain and stay there for life. A 2011 study found similar activity in certain brain regions among longtime, happily married couples and among couples who had recently fallen in love. The researchers suggest that these brain regions might provide clues as to how some couples stay deeply in love for decades.

7. Love activates the opioid system. Romantic love and attraction can activate the brains opioid system which is the part of the brain involved in liking something. Scientists have suggested that this system may have evolved to help us choose the best mate by giving rise to rewarding feelings when we see that potential partner.
8. Love can make your serotonin take a nosedive. Research has associated romantic love with low serotonin levels, which is also a central feature of obsessive-compulsive disorder. This could play a role in explaining the single-minded focus on the object of their affection that many lovers experience.

Whatever could be the plusses or minuses, human beings will keep falling in love. That is the greatest gift.

The Love Grotto

https://publish.okadabooks.com/book/about/the_love_grotto/28460

Why not call it wonderful things that love does?

boxer022:
To my little understanding, bride price is still very important and encouraged because that is the only thing that shows that a man has given out his daughter in marriage. The only problem with it is that some parents will like to be like Dangote from bride price and after collecting a huge amount of money, if there is problem in the future, they will not be able to pay back. When my junior sister was getting married, my father told our in-laws that the bride price (Money) is #10,000 which they brought. Out of it he took only #1,000 and returned back the remaining #9,000 telling them that if by tomorrow they mess up or do anything bad to my sister, that any body among us can afford #1,000 to return back to him and take back our daughter. So in the case where for instance he took #1,000,000 as bride price and tomorrow they mess up, how will he pay them back?

Your postulation appears to make sense.

Unsolicited advice is not the best.

So because it is Buhar's regime, people must stay off.

futurerex:
Where I came from, they don't collect bride price because they're not selling their daughter out to you.

I like that.

MPESA:
So your grand parents marriages are not properly conducted and blessed by Almighty and they stayed long in marriage more than your sanctuary wedding.
Make una stop all this nonsense in name of religion madness, na only una sabi God?

Your vitriol is uncalled for. Mind your language.

Holy matrimony is wedding properly conducted in the sanctuary of God.

What I mean is things are not working because we don't make things work. The problem is not the system.

Nothing is wrong with the picture. The woman is probably tired. Kudos to the man.

Wanting out is a matter of choice.

Incest

Incest is sexual relationship between male and female that are blood related. It could be between brother and sister, father and daughter, mother and son, and so on. In many cultures, the act is forbidden and is seen as a taboo.

Recently, there is a rise in cases of incest. People are beginning to undermine the inhibition and committing the act more than ever. Simply put, some now seem NOT to see anything wrong in such an affair.

In the United States of America, incest is criminalized except in the States of New Jersey and Rhode Island. Even in those two States, there was an outrage over the legality that two consenting adults, even if related, could have sex.

In view of all these, would you say incest should be erased? Can you be honest and say you have never been involved in incest?

Some people see nothing wrong as long as it is consensual.

Alcohol intake is a truism of the more you look the less you see.

That is a good paradox.

The fun is for those who are qualified to have it.

Are all adults not qualified to have it?

Our witches that call themselves wives won't allow one live this long. They are pure evil, direct descendants of the biblical Jezebel.

If you call women witches, that will include your mum and sisters.

Good news.

One of the oldest persons in Canada Esmond Allcock celebrated his 108th birthday.

​Esmond Allcock says the secret to living 108 years is to select the proper spouse.
CBC News quotes him as saying, "I didn't behave myself for a few years there, but then I got a really good wife," when asked how he managed to live a long and happy life.

His wife Helen passed away seven years ago after 72 years of marriage. He lived alone in the family home for a short time and then decided to move into the Kerrobert Health Centre.

According to his son, Allcock has lived in Kerrobert, which is located about 200 kilometres southwest of Saskatoon, for 100 years and worked as a farmer before retiring in 1975.

He has 67 living relatives which includes 38 great-grandchildren and 11 great-great-grandchildren.

Nigerian men, over to you.
