>>46864739That's right. I've actually read most of Jung's books (Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious, Psychological Types, Red Book etc etc). I've also talked about waifus under a Jungian perspective in /a/ many years ago.
That said, since I never was in that situation, I never thought of the impossibility to find a waifu and thus the implications of not being able to love yourself. That was an interesting train of thought.
What do you think then of the old ones who waifued Misaki? They couldn't love themselves but hoped a Misaki would come to save them one day. I guess contemplating the possibility of Being Saved meant they didn't lose all hope on themselves.
