Integrated Physics and Chemistry - of Love and Relationships

We are all feverishly preparing teaching modules for 'Integrated Physics and Chemistry' topics(I work for an online tutoring company which teaches science to kids all over the world). I decided it's high time someone prepared a teaching module for 'Integrated Physics and Chemistry of Love and Relationships'.

Our education system doesn't teach us how to learn science. It just encourages us to memorize facts and reproduce them in the examination answer sheets to secure the maximum possible marks with the minimum possible effort and the minimum use of the Grey cells. In spite of this, some determined souls (like me) manage to emerge from this extermination camp (our education system) unscathed with their imagination and thinking faculty still intact.

Such people view every aspect of life through colored glasses - glasses colored with the understanding of their chosen subjects. Let me take my example - I've studied physics and chemistry with a lot of interest. As a result, I'm able to see physics and chemistry in every aspect of life.

In this essay, I'll attempt to explain relationships and the emotion of love using various analogies from science.

Analogy 1:

An extremely beautiful girl with a very charming face, perfect figure and a captivating personality can be compared to the most massive object in the solar system - the Sun. The Sun is the center of attraction for all the planets that revolve around it. Similarly this beautiful girl will be the center of attraction for all the guys (with average personalities) whose thoughts will be revolving around her. The mass of the object can be compared to the personality, independence and happiness of the individual. Just as the gravitational force of attraction increases with mass, the attractiveness of an individual increases in proportion to his/her cheerfulness and confidence.

The Sun is the center of attraction for all the planets that revolve around it.
