Lust vs. Love - Why You Feel Empty After

Have you ever felt close to someone—physically—but still ended up feeling strangely empty? Like something was supposed to click... but didn’t? You’re not broken for craving connection and feeling more alone afterward. In this video, we explore the quiet space between lust and love, and why chasing one can leave us hollow when what we really needed was care, safety, or to be seen. Through PSI and CHI’s story, we look at how lust hits fast, but fades fast too—while love builds slowly, in the quiet, messy moments. If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Why did that feel good but still hurt?”—this one’s for you.

Have you ever mistaken lust for love—and how did you realize the difference?
