Oxytocin, commonly known as the "love hormone" or "bonding hormone," plays a pivotal role in nurturing emotional connections. Its level may peak during moments of intimacy and bonding, contributing to a feeling of closeness. However, as relationships mature, the frequency of these intense bonding moments may undergo natural changes or external factors like work pressure, behavioral changes, little or no communication, zero quality time, financial stress, or family responsibilities. And all these can influence the overall dynamics of a relationship. Couples may then find themselves confronting challenges that demand adaptability, resilience, etc. About Artist Olajire Olalekan is a self-taught artist born and raised in Ibadan.
