Summary

This quote showcases a complex understanding of relationships. The speaker declares that they have something stronger than love - trust. They believe that the person they are speaking to will never hurt them, which is appreciated. However, they also acknowledge that this asymmetrical dynamic means they themselves may end up hurting the other person. This highlights the vulnerability and potential for imbalance in relationships, where one person may bear the emotional weight while the other remains unscathed.
