Live Chat Transcript
with Dr Helen Fisher
(15 February 2000)
BBC Host: Thanks for logging on for Body Chemistry's live chat with Dr Helen Fisher. We hope you enjoyed the Body Chemistry series. Tonight, the subject of love. Here is the first question...
Charlie Baker: If I'm questioning whether or not I'm in love am I in love?
Dr. Helen Fisher: Love means different things to different people. But let me list some basic characteristics of romantic love. First, your partner takes on special meaning. They seem to become the centre of your universe. Second, you think about them obsessively, often continually. Third, you focus on tiny little things they said or did and replay these memories. Fourth, you feel real elation when things are going well between you and real despair when you're not getting along.
