New brain scans of people who say they are still in love after being married for decades are similar to scans of those who have just fallen in love, leading researchers to conclude that long-term relationships can be just as passionate and romantic as new love.
"We're confident it's real," says psychologist Arthur Aron of the State University of New York-Stony Brook, one of the researchers involved in the study. "That's what the brain scans are telling us. People can't fake that."
"A lot of other research always suggested romantic love is over by 12 to 15 months. This suggests that may not have to be the case," says Richmond Thompson, an associate professor of psychology and neuroscience at Bowdoin College, who was not involved in the study.
And just in case you think this is all scientific bunk, we can prove it's true!!
We have received more than 8 orders from people celebrating over 20 years today - isn't that crazy? After all these years they're still sending each other gifts they can share and enjoy.
And the cards are so nice.
So I believe what the scientists have proven. And I didn't even have to put on a lab coat!
