On the outer world ego clearly and delimited and outlined. But in an unusual state, ego fails to be delimited. Ego is also affected by other feelings. For example, the state of being in love threatens to erase the boundary between object and ego. The evidence of this is portrayed by the fact that when a man is in love, he and his loved one are one entity. And he tends to treat this as a fact. Love is not the only thing that tends to put a boundary between ego and object. Other cases that involve a man’s body, parts of his mind, feelings and perceptions. This states of mind appears to man as if they do not originate from him. He views them as foreign. Even though ego can be viewed as a subject to mental disturbance, the boundary that exist between ego and the outer world are movable (Freud, 3)
Reflection shows that ego is not something that does not develop overnight. It must undergo development in a person over time. The development process of an ego cannot be demonstrated, but the development is characterized by a certain degree of probability. The development starts right from when an infant is receiving stimuli from the breast. The stimuli cannot yet be distinguished whether they come from his ego or the outer world. He learns from gradually in steps and as a result of a number of exigencies. After some time, he will realize that his own body organs can give him the sensation that he requires, as others become out of his reach. An object always first appears to the ego as something that is existing from outside. When everything that can bring pain is cursed out, a pleasure ego is developed. The fact that most individuals would want to maintain the pleasure giving ego shows that it is part of the object but not ego. The ability of a man to distinguish between what a rise from ego and object helps him to protect himself from the painful sensation that he feels are always threatening him (Freud, 3)
The ego that we feel now is only a small part of a very large external world. The primary ego-feeling is perceived in the mind of many. The primary ego-feeling always exists as a counterpart with the ego feeling of maturity. The original feeling always survives together with the feeling that is developed later since the later feeling is always developed from the original feeling.

Ego
A man should be able to receive suggestion about his surrounding environment by a direct feeling with the purpose that sounds so inappropriate with our psychology. There is nothing that everyone is always so certain of as compared to the feeling of our self, also known as ego. Ego is a person’s sense of pride and superiority among others, and it is also a person’s identity. Ego may sometimes be viewed as a deceptive appearance. However ego extends internally into each man with no any limitation into the unconscious mind. The unconscious mind is known as id. This id forms what is known as the façade. The facade is a misinterpretation used to cover something that is not pleasant or something is not intended to be seen (Freud, 2)On the outer world ego clearly and delimited and outlined.
