Wow, what a very complicated statement. I've questioned this mysterious phase to myself for what seems like an acient tool from the Ice Age. A tool, you might ask? In almost every relationship, there must be some kind of tool that is needed to mend one's flaws into acceptance and learning how to forgive one another. There will be millions of fights, millions of disagreements, millions of heated sex, and millions of craze towards the opposite gender. The irony of this is that the millions of years have gone way back to the Ice Age era. One of the biggest milestones of your life since the moment you were born is the feeling of being loved. Being grown in your mothers womb for 9 months made you feel so secure. Just until it was time for you to come out, you screamed at the top of your lungs because you first experienced what it was like to be alone. That's when you first realized how important it is to be loved and to love others. This kind of feeling has been an eternal sense to one's self. I claim it to be a hereditary effect because really, who could survive without knowing that someone cares about you? For example, giving half a banana to a homeless man would make him feel like the luckiest person in the world because someone cared enough to give him something. The reminder of being homeless would have been nonexistant to him. Suppose a Hindu woman of an upper caste wealth had everything in the world except for the right to explore and find her fateful soul mate. I bet she would have preferred to poison herself than to live a lonely life. Eh, money can't buy love. People can't choose love. Love is a feeling that makes you feel like you're worth it as a human being. Money would just make you feel like you're being bought as a slave or a shiny gold trophy. Another form of love in importantance is the type of feeling you can never get enough of. There may be times when you just get so fed up with the significant other but you just never show the anger because that person is worth it. Your willingness to forget this person's flaws shows how much love and respect you're willing to contribute. Its a love where you become obsessively & attractively fascinated in the other person ; only to make a fool out of yourself all the time. This is why I say there's a tool that has been used for many years, even since the Ice Age. The tool is actually called, "love".

In fact, the eskimos had at least 52 different names for the word, "snow". There ought to be as many for "love" but I guess this means there's just that ONE special person for every human being.
