In imagining self-hatred\, we see a person turned in on herself. Her suffering seems driven by two antagonistic\, but complementary forces: one which threatens\, criticizes and lashes out\, another which acquiesces\, accepts and welcomes the painful animosity of the first. From one angle we see a repeated and relentless pattern of self-directed hostility. From another we see &mdash\; curiously &mdash\; an insatiable receptivity to one&rsquo\;s own hostility. How do we become\, in this cycle of self-hatred\, not only subject to\, but vulnerable to our own hostility? \; Here\, I characterize this problem by demonstrating its similarities and differences with another that moral philosophers have identified in attempting to account for the emotion of guilt: the question of how a person comes not to just fear a perspective that she takes on herself\, but how she comes to view that perspective as morally authoritative. I will then propose that the answer of how we become not just subject to\, but vulnerable to our own hostility will be illuminated once we explore the respects in which interpersonal love makes us vulnerable to others: not just as extensions of\, or necessary for our wellbeing\, but because of the particular way in which their attention can both reveal and constitute our identities.
