Interesting question: Interesting question, but there aren't any studies that answer this specifically. Being listened to does feel good, though -- and may allow you to feel more loving and warm to those who are listening to you. Being ignored is more likely to make you feel like pulling away. If the relationship is a sexual one, being listened to may improve that without increasing actual hormone levels.
