概要
Early love is often thick with projection and fantasy—not because love is fake, but because the unconscious is trying to reveal itself through intimacy. In this episode, Vanessa Bennett, LMFT explores emotional fusion, the “Magical Other” fantasy, and why differentiation is not detachment but the somatic capacity to stay rooted in yourself under relational pressure. We talk about how disappointment refines love when fantasy meets reality, why role-enforcement is a sign projection is running the show, and what it looks like to take your projections back without psychologizing yourself out of reality. The question to sit with is simple and brutal: where are you relating to a person, and where are you still relating to an image?
