Why You’re Attracted to the Wrong People: Carl Jung Explained

Why do you keep falling for the same type of person— even when you know how it ends? Carl Jung believed the answer has nothing to do with love… and everything to do with projection. In this video, we break down why you’re attracted to the wrong people through Carl Jung’s psychology of projection, anima, and animus. Jung believed that intense attraction is often not real connection, but unconscious projection — where we fall in love with parts of ourselves we haven’t yet integrated. You’ll learn: • Why attraction can feel overwhelming but misleading • What projection really is (in simple terms) • How anima and animus shape romantic desire • Why strong chemistry often leads to disappointment • How to stop repeating the same relationship patterns This is not dating advice. It’s psychological clarity. #carljung #jungianpsychology #projectionpsychology #animaanimus #whyamiattractedtothewrongpeople #relationshippsychology #deeppsychology #shadowwork #humannature #unconsciousattraction #psychologyoflove #darkpsychology #selfawareness
