Black Mirror Love – When Connection Becomes a Performance by J.D. Veyne

Black Mirror Love – When Connection Becomes a Performance

by J.D. Veyne

We used to fall in love with people.

Now we fall in love with the way they present themselves online.

Filtered. Composed. Curated. Consumed.

And we wonder why it doesn’t feel real.

This isn’t a book about dating apps.

It’s about us — how we began to mistake attention for intimacy, performance for connection, and visibility for love.

Inside you’ll discover:

• Why intimacy has been replaced by branding
• How vulnerability became just another strategy
• Why attention isn’t the same as affection
• The algorithm of attraction — and how it rewired desire
• What love looks like when the rehearsal is finally over

This book doesn’t flatter.

It doesn’t lie.

It’s a mirror — sharp enough to cut through the performance and show the part of you still capable of real, unfiltered, unafraid connection.

If you’ve ever felt loved online but lonely in life, this book is your call back to something real.
