Scenario

When couples study love academically and lose touch with lived experience

My husband and I are both academics and we've been researching attachment theory and evolutionary psychology of love, and it's making us hyper-aware of all the ways our relationship fits or doesn't fit these patterns. We're starting to feel like we're studying our own love instead of living it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Intellectual analysis of love's mechanisms creates distance from the immediate, embodied experience of loving.
