Love at First Sight Really Does Exist
What Is Your Guy Really Saying?
Is He Into You or Not?
How do you know when somebody likes you?
Cultural norms and mores obscure this sequence but this is the essence of mammalian reproduction and offspring rearing. The neuropeptides vasopressin and oxytocin are believed to be involved in pair bonding [ “Oxytocin, vasopressin and pair bonding: implications for autism.” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17118932 ; “The role of vasopressin in the genetic and neural regulation of monogamy” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15089970; “Neuroimaging of love: fMRI meta-analysis evidence toward new perspectives in sexual medicine” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20807326 but these hormones play no substantive role in attraction (where the androgens and estrogens dominate). You are very wrong to equate attraction to pair bonding — these behaviours are unrelated phylogenetically, neuroanatomically, neurochemically, and ethologically.
