Falling In Love With Love
Then too, there is always that old saw about "falling in love with love" , namely, we imagine and fantasize what love might be like for us and we see it romanticized in cinema and fiction countless times. Hemingway loved a nuse in Italy in WWI and she dumped him in real life, but in "A Farewell to Arms" Hemingway rewrites the story so that the nurse is madly in love with Hemingway, gets pregnant, dies in childbirth.
