Episode 5 - Is Chemistry Real?


Listen Later

We’ve often heard (and maybe even said ourselves) that “We just didn’t have chemistry.”  But what does that really mean?  This week, my co-host Dr. Karin Luise and I listen to stories from daters who have experienced the exhilaration of the immediate fireworks of an instant chemistry with a prospective partner AND from those whose chemistry developed over time.  We’ll also hear from daters who no longer expect a big bang (at least not in the context of chemistry) and are taking the long view.

We talk about the insightful research from Dr. Helen Fisher and her studies of how personality types and biology influence who we feel chemistry with and who we don’t.

I encourage you to take her personality test at: The Anatomy of Love

To hear more about Dr. Fisher’s findings, check out one of her Youtube videos here, or her book, “Why Him? Why Her?”
