Definition
Relating to or characteristic of alteregoism; valuing one's alter ego or another's interests alongside one's own.
Etymology
From alteregoism plus -ic (adjectival suffix). This philosophical neologism rarely appears in published works, representing an attempt to create systematic terminology for the alter ego concept.
Kelly Says
This word is so obscure it barely exists—but it captures something real: the idea that mature people aren't truly selfish or selfless, but develop 'alter-egoistic' bonds where another person becomes genuinely part of their identity.
