The theme “addicted to love” has inspired many songs and stories. Indeed, it is catchy and intriguing. Also, you might have seen stories online and in newspapers about people being "love addicts”. People who identify with “love addiction” often say that they can’t stop dating people or engaging in romantic relationships even if they already have romantic and sexual partners, and some people say that they can’t stop cheating. (Women who keep cheating tend to call themselves “love addicts” while men tend to call themselves “sex addicts".)
