A cool story came out recently in The New York Times about a writer who fell in love with someone while replicating a love study—click here to read the full tale.
“You’re probably wondering if he and I fell in love. Well, we did. Although it’s hard to credit the study entirely (it may have happened anyway), the study did give us a way into a relationship that feels deliberate.

Love didn’t happen to us. We’re in love because we each made the choice to be.”
