does love comes from the heart?

love never comes from the HEART. your biology teacher is right. let's say for example, you were very much in love with your special someone and for whatever reason, you need to undergo a heart transplant. you can't say that just because your heart got replaced then your love towards your partner will change. it's because it's the brain that dictates every part of our body.

I had the same question when we had our anatomy class.Then my r0mantic idea of cupid aiming for my heart got crushed by science. Our heart is actually a muscle,a pump for the blood. It doesnt make you fall/feel in love. What does is our brain. Love is a mix of the controls and workings of the brain- its parts (mainly the hippocampus, responsible for emotions), neurons, chemicals and hormones. There is really a reason why its the brain that's in our head instead of the heart. It controls everything even our emotions,motivations and desires.BUT i think the heart plays a big part of letting us know that we're in love. With excited signals from our brain, our heart gets pumped up. It beats really fast.It sends blood up to our cheeks for that blush. The blood carries the adrenaline that gives us the rush. So even though it is the brain that falls in love,the heart helps us to tell that we are in love.Hope that helps c:

the difference is in science and philosophy. scientifically everything related to you is controlled by your brain, not only your thoughts but also movements also. philosophically every thing related to emotions is from heart and logic from brain. science and philosophy are generally at loggerheads with each other. but then somethings do not need to be dissected by science and love is one of them. when you are in love, you skip a heartbeat or your heartbeat becomes fast...so it is a matter that heart decides.

I think that love comes from eyes.haha,when at the first time,you will be shocked and attracted by the beautiful at looks.

I think the love comes from the brain. Love, technically speaking is a bunch of neural impulses, electric signals which flash n certain areas of our mind when we either think about or see something we really like. For example, in children, they get it when they see their mothers, or their favourite toy. These electrical signals fire up sections of our brain, firing up hormonal glands and parts of brain which control emotional responses. (Yes I always over analyze things :P) Of course all of that cannot explain all the things 'love' in general is supposed to be but I do believe our perception and our emotions are controlled by our brain, so should be the feeling of love. Love coming from the heart I think was an old notion, brought about by the people living centuries ago when they thought heart was the most important organ of the body, not the brain, which was picked up by earlier writers, artists and poets and the symbolism continues to fascinate us to this date.

It's really simple ,loves from GOD.And everyone is one part of GOD

its now an old saying rather these days, love comes from mind and the guys wallet. now a days, girls are smart enough to check the guys status and then the heart matters. So now, love comes from the mind and ends with heart.

I believe love comes from the feelings we have for someone else, and to have feelings we should be able to think about the for and against of any love so we have to use the brain to think and thus I would say that the brain is the first source to start loving and then their is the emotion which gradually takes over by the heart.

For me? I believe Love always comes from the heart but the measure on how the person can love that guy/girl depends on how the person feels. we wouldn't really know if the hearts batteries is out, but the energy i think that fuels love is passion and attraction and connection to each partner. or to one who is in-love.

Love certainly comes from the brain. That is a biological fact. When the eye see, the ear hears and the hands touch, nerves sen message to the brain decipher and to compute. If the feelings are good, it is called love. The heart is always romantically linked to love by poets, writers and singers. The films also show us immense loving feelings with the lovers touching each other's heart.We have been duped!

love is come from the emotion of a certain person...

Love is a kind of feelings.Maybe it comes from heart.When you see the person you love,your heart rate will accelerate.And when you are falling out of love,you will feel sorrow.Just like the heart is broken.

hi fheroan this is santosh, n the answer for the question in my point of view is heart as iam a science student. But we can feel that in our heart. Whenever we see our beloved ones or thought of them our heart starts beating fast n we feel excited n different and we are ready to do anything for them. I was experienced too this feeling. Its strange feeling but nice.

Well technically it comes from our brain. Yes, as you've mentioned, your teacher is correct and did have a point. It's biology anyway so looking at it through that point of view, it does come from the brain, with love being a series of signals affecting our thinking and being more of an involuntary reaction of our body to certain events. But the term "love coming from the heart" is merely figurative. We could say that it has been interpreted a long time ago that love, as an emotion, is felt more right there smack center in our chests and knowing that the heart is located there, they probably kind of thought the feeling DID originate from that spot. True enough, it all depends on how you look at it, and what you believe in. Though for me, love comes from wherever we want it to be. It's a blessing, an opportunity, and most importantly it's a choice. You may feel it at first and you know you didn't choose for it to come but it's your choice if you wanted it to stay or just brush it away.

Your teacher is right. The heart does not do any thinking. Its only function to pump blood. Its just in poems and love stories that people talk about connection between love and heart. Maybe centuries ago before people knew biology, some idiot thought that love and other emotions came from the heart. Then it was monkey see monkey do.

Despite what many people believe, love actually comes from the brain, specifically from the part of the brain called the hypothalamus. Find hypothalamus in the dictionary and you will see in the definition that it is the part of the brain where emotions come from. My teacher once joked that it would be more accurate to say "I love you from the bottom of my hypothalamus" than to say "I love you from the bottom of my heart." This is actually not a matter of opinion. It is a scientific fact. So even if you have a heart transplant or you have an artificial heart, your love wouldn't go away because it is in your brain.

As I believe... Love Comes From the Soul (Well, We all have our own opinions) Love is a part of life ,as my friends told me, it is a part of life a man can never ever ignore.... I believe that love comes from the soul coz' if u take away the soul of a human, the human body will not operate.... Well... Happy Mylotting

whether love is comes from heart is difficult to say.Through my simply thinking,I think the love comes from the heart.Because the heart is a emotion to cause love and hate. When we love somebody,we will have a motivated feeling.maybe you can't understand what I say.
