Our purpose

A closer look, with some distance.

EroLove, At a Distance is an independent critical publication, unaffiliated with the product. We ask what happens when a romance-led AI interface feels like a relationship, while its terms describe a fictional character with no feelings and no professional qualification. Our criticism is about the gap a buyer or user may need to think through, not a claim that every user is harmed.

The work we actually did

We read EroLove's public Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, pricing and About pages on November 5, 2026. We did not create an account, run a conversation, test memory, receive a proactive message or measure any psychological outcome. We label examples as reflection exercises and source claims as source claims.

What readers can use

The homepage worksheet offers four private decisions: why you would use a companion, when you would stop, what data you would withhold and whom you would contact for real help. The Blog expands those decisions into specific guides. We do not collect worksheet answers or offer treatment, diagnosis or crisis counseling.

What criticism means here

We are willing to say that an intimacy-focused product should make its limitations hard to miss. We are not willing to call a provider fraudulent, illegal or responsible for mental illness without direct evidence. The provider's own policies prohibit minors, nonconsent and real-person deepfakes; we do not claim those safeguards failed.
