You might be interested to know that SSRIs appear to kill romantic love, in addition to their other effects. Thus half of the engineering problem has been solved, modulo the difficulty in obtaining these drugs.
Pity that this suggestion is a few years late for your own (unstated) predicament, of course. But don’t worry, you’ll get through it the old-fashioned way in time.
My personal case study ahem, went down immediately then went up after a month; and I’ve known lots of people who only dated after they got on SSRIs. So the answer is, IT DEPENDS.
Also, the paper seemed not to differentiate enough between libido and “love” drive.

Hm. I looked up the source and it looks like most of the “proof” is due to a few case studies. Not that anyone’s still reading this but just in case.
Thanks! (Ugh, papers that talk about fMRI results.)
But for what it’s worth, my own case study confirmed the claim as well.
