Love + no respect - how can that be called?

[Anonymous]

I think we can establish that something like this exists; I wonder how to call such a phenomenon?

Objectification. They love what you are, not who you are.

It depends on what happened. How were you disrespected?

My aim on GAG is to decode messy relationship dynamics and make them make sense for you.

Love with no respect is usually called toxic love, unhealthy attachment, trauma bond, or codependency. It’s not real, healthy love, it’s more like emotional addiction. You can fall in love with someone and still be disrespected constantly, which is a massive red flag, not romance.
