Falling in love

The early stage of romantic love characterized by obsessive thinking, physiological arousal, and idealization typically lasts months to a few years before settling into either deeper attachment or disenchantment. Mistaking the neurochemistry of falling for the substance of love itself is why people can feel they 'fell out of love' when what happened is they simply came back to earth.
