What is “love”? Experts call this romantic behavior

Are you lucky in love? Or just an emotion freak.

Emophilia is defined as “the tendency to fall in love quickly and easily.”

The term, coined by psychologist Dr. Daniel Jones, describes people who “want” to be in love, driven by the excitement of a connection and the emotional whirlwind that comes with it.

Emotional people feel they “need” someone, often because of loneliness or anxiety – and they will rush into a relationship just to satisfy that desire.

These lovebirds “seek a surge of romantic emotion, instant romantic connection, and the rapid development of romantic love.”

Like other personality traits, erotophilia is ranked on a scale – called the Emotional Confusion Scale.

Most people fall somewhere in the middle, but some romantics get stuck “immediately or without knowing much about someone.”

While falling in love is not a medical problem, it can lead to risky behaviors and pose a threat to people’s health because cognitive, emotional and biological factors in love potions can lead people to make impulsive decisions and focus on immediate gratification rather than the future plans – although they may already be picking out china patterns.

These repeat romantics were found to be more likely to engage in worrisome behavior, including infidelity, unsafe sex and perjury.

A recent study published in Frontiers in Psychology found that people with high emotional intelligence are more likely to be unfaithful than people with different romantic leanings.

“Once they enter a relationship, their excitement, intense attraction, and quick connection don’t go away. Because they have a lower minimum threshold for excitement and connection, this puts them at risk for infidelity,” said a man who was not involved in the study. Dr. Jones told The Times.

Research also shows that emotionally intelligent people tend to have more partners and engage in unsafe sex—who wants to let a bit of latex get in the way of a passionate connection?

People with this personality trait are also more willing to distort the truth and “cover up” for their partner, even if they have only known each other for a short period of time.

Dr. Jones advises adventurous romantics to look for red flags and consider potential partners who may seem “boring” to them.

“People who act nice, tactful and charming on a first date sometimes have an agenda and use that excitement for later exploitation. A red flag raised for more harmful behavior should be higher than one raised for boredom The red flags are more harmful.”

He also recommends seeking advice and input from trusted family and friends or even professionals.

“Remember that emotions and excitement can be easily manipulated, but trust and companionship should not be built hastily, and a good foundation is essential to have a realistic chance of building a relationship,” he says.
