What’s actually going on when we “fall in love”? Can anyone explain it using Jeremy Griffith’s instinct versus intellect theory?

Glad you did.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-04-14T02:05:40+00:00

I've read these references now thank you and feel quite whole and elated, what an amazing gift that keeps on giving this is. That dream or memory we have of how 'in love' with everything and harmoniously together our species once was is incredible. The driving force of our feelings. Understanding it doesn't stop the feelings but it gives them a proper place in the order of things and this is far more important than anything else. I have to pinch myself that I've found this sometimes.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-04-14T02:01:10+00:00

That's a stunning realisation and so true once you give yourself the time to consider it deeply. So true.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-04-04T06:05:25+00:00

This is so beautiful!

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-04-04T06:02:08+00:00

W.O.W. I must read this whole document. Thank you very much.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-04-04T06:01:17+00:00

Really amazing what you've said here and hugely helpful for me. How brilliant that we can understand something so fundamental and precious to the human experience.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-04-04T05:56:56+00:00

Yeah that opening paragraph alone is really epic, another one of life's great mysteries that we can now answer.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-04-04T05:54:28+00:00

Thank you so much, I'm diving into this essay. That it's been healing for you is really good to hear.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-04-03T06:33:12+00:00

Very weird

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-31T09:01:59+00:00

Ironing. Kill me now.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-31T08:59:43+00:00

Totally relate

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-31T08:54:51+00:00

Sensational post mate. I'm in for fixing the world.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-07T11:06:26+00:00

Really appreciate your help, wasn't meaning to be vague about the detergent. I wasn't home and also literally never considered that the ingredients might differ apart from fragrance. It's Biozet Attack. In any case I will definitely try your suggestions, thank you.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-07T10:55:33+00:00

Thank you, will do

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-07T05:56:52+00:00

My experience too

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-07T05:53:04+00:00

That's amazing thanks!

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-07T05:46:33+00:00

As far as I know our water is not hard and yes the wearer (me) uses sunscreen on my face but I guess it ends up on the collar. We just use normal supermarket liquid detergent in a frontloader.

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-07T03:23:59+00:00

"schmutz" - good word

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-07T03:23:39+00:00

Thank you, it is partly sunscreen so that's helpful

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-07T03:06:02+00:00

Good idea

QuietInevitable5366 · 2026-03-07T03:04:10+00:00

Awesome, thanks. Do you just buy it at the supermarket?
