She’s saying that her lover saved her from facing the fate of Ophelia

Yeah but that’s the issue. Ophelia didn’t need a lover. Having a man that loved her wouldn’t have saved her. She didn’t die of heartbreak she died from insanity of not being treated like a human being. She was driven mad by men. So the analogy doesn’t make sense.
