About This Quote

The love of a parasitic relationship is often terrible. It is based on fear, on manipulation, on the need to feel needed and the desire to achieve power over another human being. It can never be healthy or true love. A parasitic relationship is not about friendship or companionship.

It is about domination and control. It is only natural that one of the two people involved in such a relationship would not know how to love someone who actually loved them back.
