^^ this could get complicated, |

If love was in US then too many people wouldn't have this opinion that love doesn't exist. Why would one deny something that is supposed to be a part of them? Its like denying that you have a toto or kini. Pennies anyone? |

talina: Its not complicated, its very simple. atimes you feel pain in your heart, you feel your heart beating faster feeling by itself won't be possible without the brain. if the pain centre is switched off, we're physically numb, if the emotion centre switches off we're emotionally numb, |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Nobody: 5:30pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
amblors: Ok. But the brain is just a tool that processes on a subconcious level, and on a conciuos level that we can control.When we can stop all our thinking getting in the way, then love can truly flow. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by amblors(m): 5:33pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
talina: now that was hilarious, without our thought process ,we'll probably fall in love with animals too. we'll fall in love with everybody. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Nobody: 5:36pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
^^^ hahaha! Its hard to explain. Probably for another topic. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Nobody: 5:38pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
@ amblors Some people can take love for granted and turns them into something else! That's no longer love but madness or some other things! |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Nobody: 5:50pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
Mrs.Chima: Maybe they are getting in their own way, not open to it, Maybe they choose not to acknowledge it. Maybe they do love, but see it or express it differently.Who knows. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Nobody: 6:04pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
^^^^ There are different kinds of love and there are many ways of expressing them. Madness is just immature way of expressing one of them maybe when on drugs.Hehehe!If love is what we thought it is everybody that once fell in love would remain with his/her partner. |

^^^ us people make it so complicated and crazy sometimes! |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by agnesefe: 6:27pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
The brain enthuses and, for some, justifies to yet unimagined levels, with a cocktail of hormones and other physiological actions, whatever social cum physical attributions we may have of ‘love’, in the selection of mates for procreation and companionship. |

Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by MrsChima(f): 8:38pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
talina: Its difficult to know something exist if you do not believe it exist. I believe people see Love in a different way like for women who believe love is emotional whereas men believe love is physical. A noun or a verb doesn't have multiple descriptions so therefore it shouldn't be confusing however human can take the simplest thing and make a course out of it. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Nobody: 9:31pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
I guess each person just has to love the best way they know how! No matter if it comes form the head,heart, whatever. Its kind of irrelevant anyways. Life will keep pushing us towards unconditional love whether we like it or not. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Mcleo007(m): 10:06pm On Sep 03, 2011 |
Love is for silly people. The blank mind! |

I see No mind getting in the way, so the silly person can love |

by nature it shld be d heart. but now adays dose who say d brain its dier opinion, dose who say its d hrt its also dier opinion. But dis is d big question about love: Which of d organs do u use to love God and Jesus? that is d rite organ to love. QED |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Nobody: 2:54am On Sep 04, 2011 |
^^^^ I think you got it all wrong. One thing is that heart connotes many things. When it comes to emotion, sensibilities,etc and heart is mentioned know that it is about the center of your thoughts - where your characters, habits, compassion,etc come from. These are things thought out inside your mind. Then you can see that it is not about the organ that pumps blood through your body. Forget what symbol people use to represent love - it's never explained where love is thought out! |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by amblors(m): 3:25am On Sep 04, 2011 |
^^^ i agree with you. i had never really given this much thought before this thread. i had grown up reading and hearing about references been made to the heart when defining good/evil intentions/deeds and good/evil persons. mainly biblical references - As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. (implies the heart does think) The heart of man is notoriously wicked even love songs refer to the heart when it comes to love the symbol of love is the heart too. Science explains our thought processes come from the brain our emotional centre is also in the brain. i tend to go the science route. but who knows? i don't fully understand it, but i know you have a cut on leg, signals are sent to the brain I dunno that when am in the love, the heart feels and sends signals to the brain, i'll like to think its the other around, or mayb its just me talking gibberish. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Nobody: 3:34am On Sep 04, 2011 |
^^^ You are on to something. I like what you say |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Nobody: 3:46am On Sep 04, 2011 |
@amblors You complicate the issue with the concluding parts. The part you agree with me explains it all that heart connotes many things and when it is mentioned concerning love you know what we are talking about - that it's not the literal heart. Anyway, your inclination in this matter is where you got it all complicated confusing the physical heart with the abstract, where your thoughts are processed. We know the physical heart can never processed thoughts but only the mind or rather in the brain they are carried out. So, why did you use such analogy that a cut in the leg can send signals to the brain (though a wrong analogy)when you know that the brain is the only mechanism that can process the pain signals and interpret them which is the only tangible evidence that you have a cut in your leg. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by amblors(m): 3:47am On Sep 04, 2011 |
When you love someone (or atleast when its still in its infancy) your heart flutters when you see the person your loved one etc. just saw an article connected with this http://articles.cnn.com/2010-02-12/health/love.heart.brain_1_heart-rate-stress-hormone-romantic-love?_s=PM:HEALTH a portion of the article says this:: [size=15pt]Here's how it works: The brain sends signals to the adrenal gland, which secretes hormones such as adrenaline, epinephrine and norepinephrine. They flow through the blood and cause the heart to beat faster and stronger, Ho said.[/size] |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by amblors(m): 3:49am On Sep 04, 2011 |
@all4naija i guess i got it all jumbled, lol. i think the "poster" was asking about the physical brain and physical heart though. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Cuddlemii: 7:28am On Sep 04, 2011 |
Love is from the brain because it controls all our actions. You know the brain is the most important part of the body that controls the body. While the heart is one that pumps blood to all organs of the body including the brain. So heart serves, Brain controls but without the two, no life or life fails. Your body acts up what your brain has conceived & programs it to do. People only use the statement love with your brain and not your heart or love is from the heart bla bla because they feel that should get someone acting lovey dovey(heart) or tough(brain) in a relationship or marriage. But that is not necessary a proven fact because these are organs and since hierarchically the brain is on top so we should attribute love to it and not the heart until God or Scientist say other wise. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by Jenifa1: 7:31am On Sep 04, 2011 |
I've heard some doctors describe it as a mental illness. check your brain. |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by claremont(m): 7:42am On Sep 04, 2011 |
Jenifa_:Actually, it has been proven to be one! |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by pendo89(f): 8:22am On Sep 04, 2011 |
We still on this? I think the discussion has changed from location to description. I repeat again Love is in the Brain. Love is an emotion and emotions lie in the soul. The soul includes the conscious and subconscious mind. Now the brain is the 'physical' place where the mind resides. Brain>>>>>mind>>>>>soul>>>>>love. Love is what what 'you think' it is. It takes different form depending on whose mind it's in. like mr. chamelion It becomes a mental illness to those who throw all caution to the wind,reason/ make decisions based on the temp. of what lies btwn their legs To mother Theresa it meant sacrifice. To Mandela/luther it meant fighting. To the suicidal it means death. The kind that kill themselves after dump. To the KKK it means hate and racism. To perverts it means sex To Pendo its a package that excludes,pride,hate,jealousy,selfishness etc. In short YOU define Love in your mind k go love the right way today. |

claremont: We all know what your thought will be |
Re: Is Love In The Brain Or The Heart? by claremont(m): 11:19am On Sep 04, 2011 |
Mynd_44:Not my thoughts actually, it's the combined thoughts of world-renowned cognitive psychologists. Love is a mental illness which resides in the same area of the brain responsible for insanity. Anyone who is objectively minded can simply Google "Love is a mental illness" to read the scientific proof. |
