Well, nor perzakly… over time there is also a refinement of how one filters people (unconsciously) before some degree of intimacy… assuming a congruent, emotionally intelligent unconscious mind that is serving the best interests of the owner of that mind… sort of like a highly sophisticated facial recognition program… the unconscious may locate those people with whom these highly empathic, near psychic degrees of intimacy are possible, and the pheromones may be putting the final touches on the whole process… and then a virtuous cycle may evolve… the pheromones allow for more of the good stuff to happen, which further refines the unconscious processes, which deepens the good stuff… I absolutely believe that it is a dialectical process…
