I do agree with him. When we love someone, they have the power to bring us to great heights of happiness but they can also hurt us the most with even just a single careless word or even by their silence.

That’s very true. Their loss would be a devastation as well.

This is hugely inspirational! It suits a wonderfully tragic love story in my latest WIP. I may have to borrow the sentiment. Keep up the beautiful language!

Thank you so much! Feel free to borrow the sentiment, but make sure the words you choose reflect the true nature of your character. It’s never a good thing to break from the flow for the sake of adding something that doesn’t fit.

Ok, if this is the same “he” who said, “you’re not worth it,” then he needs to make up his mind already! Really like this by the way. It’s something that is usually felt but never said, at least in my case. Best, DG.

Thank you, David. And no, it’s not the same person. This particular one is a character from my first novel, Connor. Hes not the typical alpha male that most books will boast with a romantic undercurrent in it. The one that talked of worth was based on my father, and inspired the main antagonist in the same book, often saying similar things to his step-daughter, the heroine of the story. Thank you for making that connection and commenting on it.
