If you looked up chemical reaction on the dashboard dictionary of a MacBook it will give you the following definition:
Process that involves the rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance, as opposed to the change in physical form or a nuclear reaction.
I've been thinking about it lately and realized that what happens to someone when they're in a relationship is almost the equivalent to a chemical reaction (as far as analogies go) because the change happens to someone is often irreversible. You don't revert back into who you were because you've grown and continue to grow with every encounter with experience. The very essence of you remains, the atoms, protons, neutrons and electrons are still there, but you've changed form.
It's too bad I can't properly articulate this idea/analogy. Poorly communicated, I think.
