Intimacy of
desire and eroticism of drive: separate instances intertwined in the idea of love.
Hence, from a displacement of desire and drive, love emerges as spiritual,
religious, idealist and mystic concept. The knowledge of love is awareness of a
narrative of one's desire for the enjoyment of the other; retracing the desire
at the void of being or the force of life, the Freudian drive. Libido. Any
desire is wish and fantasy. Always at work, indeed in manic-erotic obsession the
idea of love, of loving beloved person is more than just desiring the agalma (Lacan's objet petit a). The compulsory instance of this misperceived identification
of the fantasy of beloved with the actual person want-to-be story of "true
love". The problem of love-idealism of the Two is however posed by
psychoanalytic practice of love-transfer, which renders love as pure altruism; disinterested
to profit on the economy of desire – but to profit on money – whereas the
previous animates the idea of the love of Two. Yet, there is the idea of Love
of Two that cannot be disregarded as illusion: the idea of One; impossible idea,
as of the Two becoming One in Love there is no-one of the two left. This is an
operation that annihilates the subject, for good or bad. Love idealism is then the
idea of absolute void, an annihilation of Being. And the One is impossible to
make "in love". What truth is now revealed in this dialectical
movement of reasoning? The truth that One is always already One-self. So, why
make one self an idiot of Love?
