You lose sleep, hunger, rising to the clouds and feel that the life turns upside down. But what ultimately makes a person fall in love with another?

Want to live a great love? Ask us how. It seems a promise of charlatan - after all, nothing is more unpredictable than passion, right? Millions of words have been expended over the centuries to describe the mysteries of her. The mathematician Blaise Pascal ("The heart has its reasons which reason knows own ") to the physicist Albert Einstein ("how science could explain such an important phenomenon as love?"), All the greatest minds of humanity declared themselves powerless to solve mysteries and vagaries of passion. They were wrong. Science is beginning to discover that there is indeed logical in love. And, who knows, even a formula. Mathematicians at the University of Geneva studied marriages, analyzing different characteristics of the spouses, and arrived at a formula that would be the perfect match - with higher rates of happiness and lower risk of separation. The woman should be five years younger and 27% smarter than the man (the ideal is that she has a college degree, and he hasn't). And you have to experiment enough before deciding: a statistical done by analysis John Gilbert and Frederick Mosteller, Harvard University, pointed out that if you have a relationship whit 100 people for life, their chances of finding the perfect match only reach the peak in the 38th relationship. Do this and you will be rewarded with 57% more likely to be happy. But if you think these conditions pointless, or at least difficult to follow, you are right. The conclusions are purely statistical, ie, design an ideal setting and do not take into account the decisions that people actually take: almost all the couples studied by Swiss scientists (to be precise, 99.81%) did not live according to the formula. After all, people are not equations. They are a pile of neurotransmitters, hormones - and experiences. Besides this, we hope that you can find your perfect pair !
