“The opposite of love is not hate; it is indifference. If you hate them, they still have power over you. Hate takes energy. Indifference is caring so little about them that they become nobody to you. No power over your emotions or your day. Indifference means their actions and words no longer affect you; they simply don’t matter. It's the ultimate freedom, allowing you to focus your energy on the things and people who truly deserve it. So, let go of the hate, embrace indifference, and reclaim your peace and power.”

"What happened?"
"Oh, he fell hopelessly in love with me, of course.”
― R.S. Grey, Love the One You Hate

“Holly, what is it?’ he frowned. ‘Darling, tell me what’s wrong? I know we didn’t plan on making love, but it was the most beautiful thing imaginable, so tell me what’s wrong’

She still couldn’t look at him, filled with shame for what she had done. ‘Could you get your clothes on first?’

‘You didn’t say that a moment ago!’

She flushed at his angry taunt. ‘Please,’ she said huskily, knowing by the sound of his movements that he was indeed dressing.

‘Now,’ he barked grimly, ‘what the hell is the matter? Talk to me!’
