And to have romance, we have to be able to produce adequate amounts of the hormone, Oxytocin.
Unfortunately, if a person grew up neglected, such a person may not be able to produce enough oxytocin. Sometimes optimizing the hormones may restore this.
It took Harry Harlow's monkeys five generations to compensate for the early neglect. I wonder if this may be offset by providing consistent, secure attachment. My wife and I have varying degrees of success with the feral kittens we raise. They have taught me quite bit about adrenal functioning.
