%X Reader-centered Empathy Theory was created by Theodor Lipps. According to Lipps, empathy is the process in which a person reflects himself / herself on an object, such as a work of art, that he / she feels himself / herself within it and in this way he / she understands it by absorbing. Lipps, in his studies after 1897, mentioned that ¡°einf¨¹hlung¡± might emerge during the perception of people as well as objects. In this article, the love of Haf£¿z Nevzat Efendi, the hero of Halit Ziya U£¿akl£¿gil¡¯s story ¡°About Love¡±, more precisely his platonic love was analyzed. Empathy Theory was used for this analysis. Haf£¿z Efendi lives his love without expressing his emotions and without having a physical intimacy with the woman. Haf£¿z internalizes the woman he loves by means of empathy. Rather, it seems as if he replaced her instead of himself. Haf£¿z is together with the sick woman who doesn¡¯t even know that she is loved by him. However, he reflects his feelings only to the azans and ghazals he recites. Haf£¿z Efendi who dissolved himself in the presence of the woman he loves commits suicide upon her departure from the village
