It seems Victor’s love for Henry was only surface level while Henry truly loved Victor with all his heart. Maybe that’s why he took all those other lovers. Because he knew as much as Victor claimed to love him, he never knew or cared for Henry deeper than what was on the outside. Victor is obsessed with Henry’s image and puts him on high pedestal, but did he even know what Henry liked, what his flaws were and what he wanted in life? It’s borderline worship and not love.
