This text approaches the theme of love partnerships based on Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalysis, without disregarding, therefore, that there is no norm for sexual intercourse and that if there is autoerotic pleasure, love acts against it by favoring an open access for the Other. It was decided to weave considerations from certain modes of functioning of love partnerships in neurosis and psychosis. The focus on psychosis is some way more amplified, with the purpose of stating that these subjects have the possibility of love, opposing to whatever one may think. Therefore, Camille Claudel is summoned to the scene, in search of teachings on what is called by Lacan as “dead love”, in disagreement with life, characteristic of the psychosis, experienced in the partnership of Camille with August Rodin
