Mirage I think we have to be a little careful about stating psychological theory as 'what is' 'True love' may be a projection. but love isn't purely a projection. Projection canbe/is part of it, but not the whole. That is what I meant in my earlier post about reductionism. We can reduce anything to a framework to analyse, understand and talk about it. But it isn't the thing itself.
I do not disagree with what you say about looking inward, but we are much more, than the framework that psycotherapeutical ideas suggests, useful and explanatory as that is.
