APATHY is the opposite of love. That's why your apathy burned me like it did. That's why your fear for the delicacy of this or any situation irks me. That's why I long to hear determination instead of fear, and hope for your certainty amidst the uncertainty. I just feel like if you truly love someone, little could stop you from loving them except your own apathy. And if it's requited love, why should anything stop it?

Here I was worrying about animosity, bitterness, pride- worrying that they were the opposite of love; that they would ruin us. But they're too strong to be the opposite of love. They're rooted in love, and they're piped with passion. It's apathy that would get us, and it's not going to get me. If I still love you, I'm going to try to love you. And if you don't love me, then I'm probably mistaken about truly loving you, and time will redirect my love.
