Chris Brown and Karrueche's wild relationship sparked a question that I thought needed some attention: why do people in bad relationships keep getting back together?<br /><br />The answer in short is that love is a drug, an addiction that few can escape (let alone someone who is already prone to addiction...we're looking at you Mr. Brown).<br /><br />But like with any drug, there is ways to kick the habit but first, you must understand the nature of the beast. Here is how love works like a drug in your body:<br /><br />Adrenaline: you know how they say people who sky dive are adrenaline junkies? Well love gives us a similar rush, (e.g. butterflies), especially new love.<br />Dopamine: is a feel good neurotransmitter that does many things but in regards to love, it is the happy drug<br />Serrotonin: balances our mood and is usually the culprit in making us feel love sick in breakups<br />Oxytocin: a chemical released to bond couples during sex and also, mother's to their babies. Some studies say oxytocin is more present in female sexuality<br /><br />Boody Call is a new segment where I come to the rescue to answer some of loves great mysteries on love and sex.
