Warning: this article is gonna make you question everything you thought you knew about love, desire, and, well, yourself

Ever looked in the mirror and thought, “Damn, I’m not half bad”?

Well, what if I told you there are people out there taking that to a whole new level? We’re talking about folks who don’t just think they’re good-looking, but are literally in love with themselves.

Sounds crazy, right?

Well, welcome to the wild world of autosexuality.

Now, before you start thinking this is just another crazy internet fad, let me tell you something.

I met this girl, Ghia, a 31-year-old American, who blew my mind. She looked me dead in the eye and said, without blinking, “I’m in love with myself.

Like, actually in love.” And no, she wasn’t kidding.

Ghia told me she loves her own company. She even likes looking at herself in the mirror while… well, you get the idea. Says it’s the best feeling in the world. I’ll admit, I was pretty “WTF” at first, but then I started thinking: has she discovered something the rest of us are missing out on?
