After all, we'd have to be mad to fall in love wouldn't we?

Depends on who you fall in love with. There are good people in the
world. I'd have to say that I don't blame men for not putting up with
some women. My life's experience is that I had to be so much more
careful with women playing me as opposed to men playing me.

People with OCD behave obsessively about certain things.

<STRONG>Does love make you sad?</STRONG>
Rather than making you happy, love could actually make you depressed. One symptom of OCD appears to be unusually low levels of the neuro-transmitter 'serotonin'. Low levels of serotonin have been associated with anxiety and depression. Italian students who claimed they had recently fallen in love were found to have serotonin levels 40% lower than their peers.
