The comment

Emotional addiction can be very difficult to recognize, since its presence is often confused with strong feelings of love.

Let's figure out where it's all coming from. Mass culture strenuously imposes on us the illusive image of those who loved each other and died on the same day or suffered in the name of true love, thereby presenting psychological deviation as a standard. To love and to suffer have the similar meaning in the minds of many of us.

This kind of setting has been in our heads since early childhood and makes itself felt even at a very conscious age. After all, age sometimes comes without awareness and self-sufficiency.

Love's bloody.

It  wants your blood.

Nay, it feeds on your blood.

All this silly imagery of "comfortable" love is a forge that's easier to follow, a lightweight plastic to bear instead of the solid gold.

Something akin to the deviated "modern" Christianity that  cankers on the western psychology. Just SACRILEGE. Impiety

No pain - no gain...

I heartily adhere  to the image of love that has already seized the highest, the steadfast seat in my world. Let it be adamant.
I WILL suffer. Because that's how the path of Love is paved.
