More quotes by Helen Fisher
We all have restlessness in long-term relationships.
Helen Fisher
At first I assumed hate was the opposite of love. But it isn't. The opposite of love is indifference.
Helen Fisher
In courtship, who wins and who loses will determine who passes on their DNA to tomorrow.
Helen Fisher
You fall in love with somebody who fits within what I call your 'love map,' an unconscious list of traits that you build in childhood as you grow up. And I also think that you gravitate to certain people, actually, with somewhat complementary brain systems.
Helen Fisher
Jealousy can even be good for love. One partner may feel secretly flattered when the other is mildly jealous. And catching someone flirting with your beloved can spark the kind of lust and romance that reignites a relationship.
Helen Fisher
We spend our lives trying to get along with people so we can keep our jobs, keep our marriages together, so that we can raise our kids properly.
Helen Fisher
Keep an open heart. We are wired to find love.
Helen Fisher
My hypothesis is that conservative Republicans have very clear values, and when you have that, you're simply more relaxed.
Helen Fisher
You can really get poked in the back and not feel it very much, but just a feather around your lips and you really do feel it.
Helen Fisher
Today, most women are surrounded by ingenious gadgets. They don't grow the peas or raise the chicken that they serve for dinner instead they hunt and gather in the grocery store. They go through catalogs or department stores to buy clothes instead of shearing sheep, carding wool, and weaving cloth for skirts and coats and blankets.
Helen Fisher
Men and women are like two feet they can help each other get ahead.
Helen Fisher
A Rolex watch or an expensive car are the things guys often use to show status, wealth, and basic desirability.
Helen Fisher
Neither gender is routinely more jealous - although women are more willing to work to win back a lover, while men tend to flaunt their money and status and are more likely to walk out to protect their self-esteem or save face.
Helen Fisher
I've always maintained that men were more romantic than women.
Helen Fisher
Romantic love is one of the most addictive substances on Earth.
Helen Fisher
Women like signs of money and education - things that indicate that not only is this guy going to have some resources, but he's also willing to share them.
Helen Fisher
Natural beauty really entices men. They will tell you this time and time again, and studies consistently prove it.
Helen Fisher
The Great Depression of the 1930s saw more American unmarried women working from nine to five, mostly in repetitive, boring, subordinate, dead-end jobs. But the number of working women doubled between 1870 and 1940. During World War II it doubled once again.
Helen Fisher
Blushing is thought to be linked to increased levels of norepinephrine in the brain, which may be associated with romantic feelings. It signals that we are interested and excited, which is attractive to men.
Helen Fisher
Men want to think women don't cheat, and women want men to think they don't cheat, and therefore the sexes have been playing a little psychological game with each other.
