But lots of people experience and identify with "Love languages" and "Stockholm syndrome." In fact both concepts resonate with me. They are merely words to describe people's subjective experiences. You can't say that people's feelings are "pseudo." Do you want me to invalidate all your feelings? How does that feel? Or do you not have any feelings or subjective experiences?

    unfortunatly, the reality do not care for our feeling. If you're a flat earther you are hurt when you are told the eath is round. And whatever your feeling, it is still round.

    Flat earth is pseudoscience.

    Love language & Stockholm syndrome are subjective experiences.

    Interesting. So a belief could be accepted, if your identy resolve around it. Believing in Allah, or Vishnou or God are subjective experience. But not 3 of them can be true. change flat-earth with astrology, if the problem is the subjective part. Or the MBTI test.

    Love language pretend that people are bound to express love in certain way. It was a made up by a dude in early 1900 with no science test, base, or research.

    The fact that you believe in it, has no impact about its validity as a reality . The same for stockholm. Because you "feel" it is right, does not make it right.
