Do you feel more creative when you are in love?

In a recent question I asked about the relationship between sexual energy and creativity. This question is about love and creativity. Usually, I believe, people feel the “in love” feeling the strongest at the beginning of a relationship. Some other people say they can keep it at a steady level, and that may be true for them. I’ve never experienced that.

I have found that when I’m in love, I seem to have much more energy and I feel better about myself, and this allows me to take more risks and accomplish more. This makes love a little addicting. Maybe more than a little ;-)

Do you feel more creative when you are in love? If so, what specific changes have you noticed in your life when you are in love? What are the concrete effects this enhanced creativity has resulted in? Why do you think this relationship exists (or doesn’t exist, as may be the case)?
