Narcistische liefde.Eerst hou je van die ander
om al het mooie van jezelf dat je herkent.
Daarna verafschuw je die ander
om al het lelijke van jezelf dat je herkent.
Daarna verafschuw je jezelf.
Of, in de woorden van Roy Stuart:
"All romantic love originates from a fundamental dissatisfaction. A discontentment. An attempt through another person to get rid of this inner feeling of distress. Carmen: A mere matter of projection? That we get to see our better selves in the filtered reflection of the person who loves us? Is it this which gives us this boost what we call love?... Roy: Yes. Basically that's another way of saying you're just improving your ego. Once there is a risk of this person disappearing, you become possessive and this is where jealousy starts. You don't want your ego boost to go away because the big danger is that your ego will fall back into the same miserable state it was in the first place." (interview door carmendevos)
