Love

     I recently read an article on the Popular Science website about how the feelings of a long, old married couple, are quite the same to a new romance.  In  a study, 10 women and 7 men were scanned on their brain activity on how they loved their partner. The study then took another 10 women and 7 men who were much younger and asked the same type of questions.  Surprisingly, the researchers found out that the brain scans looked almost the same; showing that even though someone may be old, they still have a very deep love for each other.

     I liked this article because it shows that even though these people may be old, they are not boring old people who don't sleep in the same bed and go to sleep by 7 o'clock.
