Love That Does Not Hurt
Markus Zöchmeister
When the partner you are looking for is virtually found on a dating platform, this is initially not a partner of love choice but assigned by the algorithm of the machine, which acts as a guarantee for any replacement. This partner wears the colour of the machine, his loss is replaceable and therefore not a loss that makes a hole in the real.

Painful Loves – Keren Ben-Hagai
âWe see, then, that the phase of exclusive attachment to the mother, which may be called the pre-Oedipus phase, possesses a far greater importance in women than it can have in men. Many phenomena of female sexual life which were not properly understood before can be fully explained by reference to this phase. Long ago, for instance, we noticed that many women who have chosen their husband on the model of their father, or have put him in their fatherâs place, nevertheless repeat towards him, in their married life, their bad relations with their motherâ.

Freud spoke of the pre-Oedipal stage, the stage in which the mother serves as the primary love object, as a time that is very difficult to grasp in analysis as if it âhad succumbed to an especially inexorable repression.â(1) Unlike phallic jouissance, which is related to the signifier, the object, a baby from the father – can we think of this âinexorableâ primary repression together with feminine jouissance?(2) The âotherâ jouissance that Lacan positioned outside the signifier, is connected with the lack in the Other, with love, and with infinity, and therefore not supported by fantasy. Lacking phallic barriers, the daughter and mother are without limit and lost: it's no coincidence that Freud said we can find there âthe germ of later paranoia in womenâ.(3) Analysis that has on its horizon the delimitation of feminine jouissance can serve as a boundary to the ravage towards the mother, which, according to Freud, manifests in relationships with the husband.
