The true opposite of love is fear….
When I first met you, I thought, WOW! What an amazing woman. And thru the last year we’ve developed a friendship that I cherish more than anything. Now I fear I’ve really messed things up. I’m sick over it. I don’t know what came over me. I read this book once that I’ll always remember. It was called “Finding God” and it was all about love. It talked about love and the opposite of love…most people automatically say hate. That’s not true. Love and hate are very closely intertwined. There’s only a fine line that separates the two. Both emotions are so powerful, and so hard to control. I lost control. The line became too fine and I crossed over. I can’t take back the hurtful words, they’re out there forever. But I just wanted to try to explain my erratic behavior. I feel sick inside knowing that I hurt your feelings. The true opposite of love is fear. Fear is the only thing that can stop that wonderful, blissful, and sometimes hurtful emotion of true love. I’m so very sorry.

I am a stranger responding to you. Forgive yourself. Not easy,I know but necessary. I am trying really hard to forgive myself too.
