in the same way i have poor ego boundaries, the boundaries of the object of my emotional evaluations is very loose

i other words it’s hard for me to tell whom is the target of positive affect, there is simply positive affect. often i end up crystallizing focus into several discrete individuals tailored to their own particularities, but the impetus is rather undifferentiated

not to say that the causal chain can’t prominently feature a person that also receives the affection back in turn (in addition to other inspired recipients), that paired with compersion are of course the two classic illustrations of the falsity of love scarcity
