JAKARTA - Chemistry is known as a chemical reaction in the brain that occurs when there is attraction and emotional closeness to someone. It is more than physical attraction and makes two people who are in love covet each other.

Sometimes chemistry is understood as trust, respect, mutual understanding, and having attachments more than just sex. According to experts, several factors can strengthen chemical bonds with partners.

Although the definition of chemistry tends to be abstract, true love has the following four factors.

Physical attraction

Connecting with something outside of oneself requires sense perception before the seeds of chemistry are born. Physical interest can change over time. As reported by Reader's Digest, someone's attraction to someone can be influenced by smell, speech, and genetic similarities with the closest person.

Emotional attraction

Kimberly Seltzer, a relationship therapist at Elite Image Makeovers says that a person may look good but not all give birth to a 'splash' or feel of a ''click'. This emotional attraction will never be separated from interacting with each other, exchanging stories, paying little attention.

Intellectual compatibility

This is similar to physical attraction, someone who has a sense of humor and a bit intellectual will get along with a partner who can match his intelligence.

Spiritual compatibility

Couples who have spiritual compatibility, for example, have the same way of life and lifestyle tend to build chemistry more easily. Some people may adhere to conventional views and put religion in this category.

But it is actually more than that because this need to develop spiritual compatibility will develop over time.

Launching the notes of Jeremy E. Sherman Ph.D., MPP a philosophy of biology and social science researcher - at Psychology Today, February 5, someone may find it easier to say 'no chemistry' than 'I'm not interested in you'. Why?

Sherman explained that chemistry is not a question of personality, but every partner has their own chemistry.

When the relationship ends, maybe the 'what's wrong' question isn't easy to answer. Nor can it be changed in a moment. However, chemistry has a big role to play in a lasting relationship.

Chemistry may also be more complicated when defined by love. Because chemistry is not always related to love. Some relationships have strong chemistry but are not romantic, for example, the chemistry of a team at work.

How about you and your partner, already have all the aspects of chemistry booster?
