the chemicals of crush

Did you ever want something but knew you couldn't have it?

It's kind of like when you are little and you maybe have a crush on someone else. And of course you almost always find out afterwards that it was a bad idea anyhow.

That Garth Brooks song (!) Unanswered Prayers does a pretty good job of explaining it. Am I now without a shred of credibility?

Anyway - I wonder is there a chemical that is released by the brain when we want something yet rationally speaking we will never ever ever have it?

Now I have my iMac I don't have any chemical issues when I look at the Apple store. But every now and then I get these little rushes of chemicals that make my pupils dilate and my brain heat up.

Curious.
