Sometimes the first love in life leaves a mark.
In this article, we will tell you why this can happen.
Why first love seems to be the strongest
People often experience their first serious relationship more vividly and remember it for the rest of their lives.
However, very often we idealize our first love, so we are as open and trusting as possible and do not have time to be disappointed in reality.
Therefore, a person remembers the ideal picture without complications, conflicts of interest and crises.
Psychologists believe that this happens because during this period people are as open and trusting as possible.
Therefore, it is easier for us to share our most intimate things and allow ourselves a lot.
On the other hand, this is due to the production of hormones in humans - mainly oxytocin.
During our first romantic encounter, our brains are drenched in a cocktail of hormones and chemicals.
Oxytocin, known as the 'love hormone,' fosters feelings of attachment and intimacy.
Dopamine surges through our reward pathways, creating a sense of euphoria and a craving for more.
Norepinephrine makes us giddy and energized, while serotonin levels drop, leading to obsessive-compulsive tendencies.
This hormonal storm imprints the experience deeply into our sensory memory.
