Summary

This quote implies that in a breakup or separation, it is often the person who is not truly in love who tends to use more affectionate and sensitive words. This suggests that, sometimes, people may try to manipulate or deceive their partners by expressing love or kindness, despite their true feelings being less genuine. It highlights the complexity of human emotions and the potential for insincerity in relationships.
