Pavlov Effect of Euphoria

The Pavlov Effect of Euphoria stems from when couples party together and experience euphoria together from drugs. When they stop partying they still associate the feelings of euphoria with the person through subconscious association. This often leads to long term relationships with pseudo love and false romantic feelings they’ve tricked themselves into believing are natural.

Billy and Emily used to party together all the time and experience euphoria from drugs, when they stopped partying they remained together because they became conditioned to associate the positive feelings they used to feel with the presence of their partner instead through the Pavlov Effect of Euphoria.

The Tim McGraw Effect

The Tim McGraw effect takes place whenever you associate a certain thing with a past lover. Usually this occurs because it was an interest/passion of said person. Comes from the Taylor Swift song “Tim McGraw” where she sings the line “when you hear Tim McGraw, I hope you think of me”.

“Bro every time I hear a Nicki Minaj Song I think of Brittney. She would always play her music in the car.”

“Yeah—its the Tim McGraw Effect”
