When you have an idol you're like "OMG I think that person's so amazing", and then you find out they're horrible, and you're like "Oh right, because the reason I think that person is amazing is because they're reflecting something amazing in me.
When you love someone you're the one who's doing the loving, you're the person who's great enough to give that love. It's not about that other person.
