ow to find true love has gotten scientific. It used to be that we had to wait for Cupid to ambush us with his arrow, or the Fairy Godmother to wave her magic wand, or you did your best Hugh Hefner impression.
Or you went to the hot nightspot in your town, and waited for someone to approach you, or you were filled with androgens, meaning you were male, and you approached lots of eligible folks, in hopes of experiencing some 'chemistry.'
But that was before functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and the work of folks like Helen Fisher,Ph.D., who has been studying the phenomenon of romantic love, and relationship for three decades.
Fisher has put the brains of a number of just in love, just out of love, and long time in love folks through the unflinching eye of the fMRI and has described what it is that our brains are doing when in one of those love states.
Professor Fisher's theory, based on her analysis of her data, is that we human's fall into four basic personality types, each of which is ruled by a particular hormone or neurotransmitter, and that some types are more compatible with others.
So what you should do in your quest to find true love is take her personality test, find out what type you are, and what the other types are, and then get out there and narrow your choices to compatible types.
The idea is that you will be able to more easily strike up chemistry with a compatible type.
