Hadi Kazemi and Samaneh Pakdel New Romantic Appearance

Being creatures of habit and long-term relationships, romanticism doesn’t fit very well into the human equation. After all, imagine trying to raise children or getting literally anything done if you’re constantly being swept off your feet, engulfed in the latest dopamine dump every time your partner walks into the room. That’s why it’s important not to get bummed out if you’re in a long-term relationship and feel romantically flaccid: Your brain is just doing what it’s evolutionarily mapped out to do, which is settle down and reproduce, rather than swoon.
