Na wah ooh 2 years 👀
Like I said it's not impossible but... Well, it's even more possible for you that resides outside the shores of naija especially if you haven't been there that long to mingle enough to trust someone for that. But two years is long oooh how do you cope when the hormones are raging cos it's natural?
I’ve lived here my whole life. I just let them (hormones) rage it’s only a few days a month. I don’t wake up with a woody 😂. I’ve gone 4 years during my undergraduate studies, that was my longest stint. The fear of diseases is the beginning of wisdom.

Thanks dear.
I think this is exactly what I needed.
To me this is the best advice I have gotten here.
Believe me those words calmed me so much.
Maybe you were ovulating that day and you picked up on his pheromones, he was a healthy man and your biology took over. If you see him again with clear eyes, you might change your mind.

Omg! It just happened to me 😂 I’m ovulating and I just caught eyes with a healthy specimen of a man and my insides moved! I looked back and caught him looking back and I felt 🔥 💥. It’s all biological.

During ovulation, estrogen levels are higher, and research shows this can increase a woman’s sensitivity to male chemosignals (pheromone-like scent cues). If the man appeared healthy and genetically compatible, his scent and visual cues could have activated the limbic system, triggering attraction before conscious thought. This response is biological and automatic. Once hormone levels change and the prefrontal cortex (rational control) is more dominant, the initial attraction may lessen or be reassessed more objectively.

This explanation is consistent with findings from evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and endocrinology. Biology initiates the signal, cognition decides what to do with it.

Men need to study this cycle of women to know when to mate and when to play game especially when they want babies. We are still animals whether we like it or not. It's judgment that makes us not jump to instincts.

From a scientific perspective, attraction between opposite sexes involves automatic biological signalling that happens before conscious thought. Research in neuroscience and endocrinology shows that the body can respond to visual, scent, voice, and movement cues by releasing hormones and neurotransmitters such as dopamine, estrogen/testosterone, and oxytocin. There is also evidence that humans detect chemosignals (sometimes called pheromone-like cues) through smell, which can subtly influence attraction, mood, and arousal even when a person is not aware of it. These signals are processed very quickly by the limbic system, the emotional and instinctive part of the brain.

This early response happens before rational thinking because it evolved for reproduction and social bonding. The hypothalamus links the brain to the hormonal system and can trigger bodily changes automatically. In animals, these signals often lead directly to mating behavior. In humans, the same biological systems exist, but they are more complex and influenced by learning, culture, and memory. Studies show that hormone release can happen without any conscious intention or action, simply perceiving a potential mate is enough to activate the system.

What makes humans different is the strong role of the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain responsible for self-control, judgment, and social rules. This area can suppress or regulate instinctive urges coming from the limbic system.

So biologically, humans still respond like higher animals, but neurologically, we have an added layer that allows us to pause, reflect, and choose how (or whether) to act. This balance between instinct and control is well supported by neuroscience research.

Laughs
I see cute guys everyday.
He isn't so handsome, I'm just attracted to him.
Are you trying to say he is the most handsome guy I have met?
But it's my first experience of falling for a guy like that.
He could be a connection from past life or not, but love at first sight is real. If anybody likes, let them call it lust or not. 😘

It's neither feelings nor love. It's an illusion and infatuation.

Charis15:
Well currently I don't have a boyfriend.
I have been celibate for over a year and I'm okay. I have every good thing of life you can think of believe me.
I have a guy in UAE pleading for me to join him but I declined because I'm not attracted to him.
I give more when I'm in a relationship.
I'm not those 2k abi 20k girls
Why do you choose to be celibate?

..

Same thing just happened I think last 2yrs till this year..
Saw her the first time,I felt like I have known her before..
But cos I'm pro redpillled😹.I fazed it off
I didn't care,she also felt it,it's all in the eyes..
But I cared less though,up untill it started feeling intense such that wherever I go I'll see her,some weird paranormal situations (Heard there's no coincidence in the universe).

Like I went into research I now heard about twin flame shii(maybe she's there to teach me a lesson etc).

It really became intense such that we started communicating telepathically..
Like I can dream about her then the next day, we're in the same transit going to the same place..
Damn weird things..
But I prefer clarity,I don't do illusions 😹.
Cos I dont believe in love fairy tales..
Cos I've seen that when men are in their lowest they are mostly left alone etc..

Or maybe she was just a mirror to test how strong I was..
Cos her and her friends tried to make me chase her or react,but I still.maintained my cool..
Untill she started chasing me,I still didn't give a fvck cos im like "why is there anything if there could be nothing..

Amd from my school of thoughts"I seem to see life as a meaningless program..

My favorite Philosopher Emil Cioran said" By all evidence we're here to do nothing..

So I really wanted to know if this past life stuff is real😌.
Thanks

Hmmm
Not in all cases dear.
If we cross paths again na forever.
Then you end up becoming a used and dumped Nairaland feminist like the others


Whenever y'all think like this, just remember that the men you are thinking about already have in their mind :better,more sophisticated,richer,more spotless, more beautiful ladies that wouldn't even give them audience

There are billions of women more than men

You mean I can't tell the difference between what my heart is feeling and what my body is requesting for?
How can someone mix up emotional feelings with carnal body?

I repeat myself dear.
No in all case.
There are multiple cases of mutual feelings.
I believe he is a good man and so won't hurt me.
