“One thing about human beings puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly within.”
— Sigmund Freud

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, people try very hard to stay close to someone or something they love, even if it hurts them. Let's think about a person who stays in a bad relationship. They might know it's not good for them, but they stay because they love their partner. This can make them feel worse over time, but they can't let go because of their strong feelings. It's like a moth being drawn to a flame despite the danger. The advice here is to recognize when something is hurting you, and think about whether staying close to it is really worth the pain. This can help you make healthier choices for your well-being.
