Scientific tend to view sex and love as a mammalian instinct. Dr.Helen Fisher divides love experience into three partly-overlapping stage: lust, attraction, and attachment.

Lust is the initial passionate sexual desire that promotes mating. It stimulate the release of hormones such as testosterone and oestrogen. The effect is only last for weeks or months.

Attraction is romantic love stage. People at this stage will constantly release chemical, including dopamine, phenylethylamine (PEA), norepinephrine and serotonin. The effect of this chemicals flowing in bloodstream is similar to stress: increased heart reat, sweaty palms, heavy breathing and etc.

Unlike lust and attraction stage, attachment stagement stage is accounted for long term relationship. Evidence suggested that monogamy and trust are related with oxytocin and vasopressin. This is the stage where mature love is.

Is it true that there are brain enzymes that last for three years and when the threes are up you will know if you truly love someone?

Scientific studies and scans of the brain show that the brain is on a chemical high when the person is "in love." The feeling of ecstasy and the "butterfly in stomach" feeling that you get when you are around the person that you're "in love with" is caused by chemicals released by the brain. The feeling is similar to a "high" produced when using certain drugs. Although these feelings can be misleading, it does not mean that you do or do not love someone. It is possible to know whether or not you really love someone before the brain stops releasing chemicals, but it is difficult. This is why deciding whether or not to marry someone should not be based solely on feelings.
