It's all based on oxytocin, the basic effect is the same. The experience isn't identical, there's a lot of factors at play, and hormones especially when young. They say you never forget your first love.
Interestingly, testosterone interferes with oxytocin, men do not experience as intense an effect. Also it seems to diminish with age, it's a less intense feeling.
It never lasts anyways. Some people chase the dragon, leaving their partners when they no longer feel the high anymore.

Yeah, course they don't have to leave. There's always adultery. The r/adultery sub is interesting. A lot of them love their partners but they want to get laid and have fun too. That seems more understandable than leaving someone although that's pretty contrary to general opinion.
