one of two things, most likely it is the hit of endorphines which is a chemical secreted by the body into our bloodstream which makes us feel good & happy. In a female, this flood of endorphines comes after either sex or eating choclate.
Or it could be the sugar hit that you are missing as well, but dark chocolate has alot of antioxidants in it so it is actually healthy to have a 60gram bar a day!

Because eating chocolate releases endorphins in the brain. Endorphis are also stimulated and released after sex and after exercise. See the connection?

Because its sweet and at certain times very comforting. Hmmm its cheap and comes in shiny packages. Its melts easily in your mouth and can be made in different types of food. *sigh* I dont even like chocolate that much;-)!!

Sex and chocolate, watch out!
Just like everyone is telling you it's the chemical endorphins that make you feel Happy.

It's filled with caffiene! And, sugar...and cocoa...the original chocolate was made with ingredients from the cocoa plant, where cocaine is made from. VERY ADDICTIVE...
