our lives are controlled by the way we react to stimuli....whether all of the senses are involved or not each stimulus will set off a chemical and or electrical reaction.....we cannot control these reactions....

as for relationships involving love........they are the result of stimuli........and the desire to mate or nurture, love is a chemical reaction to stimuli
it is real as long as the stimuli exists......peer pressure and the perception we are better than animals is the antethesis of stimuli........we tend to do what is expected of us and deny the chemical reactions....and we are supposed to be at the top of the evolutional ladder.......
