thinking beyond love addiction

The term "addiction to love" inaccurately describes the psychological affliction being discussed. A more appropriate term would be "obsession with love," although even that fails to fully encompass the essence of the issue at hand. This fixation is not solely focused on an obsession with love; rather, it involves an obsession with the self, driven by fear, anxiety, a deep-rooted fear of being abandoned or left alone, and our deepest, deepest need to be loved.
