Love's expensive twin — costs you the rent in your own head while charging the target nothing.
means To feel intense hostility, aversion, or strong dislike toward someone or something.
from From Old English 'hatian,' to hate or treat as an enemy, rooted in Proto-Germanic '*hataz' — kin to Old Norse 'hata' and German 'hassen.' Scholars trace it further back to a Proto-Indo-European root '*kad-,' carrying the sense of sorrow or strong feeling, which hints that hatred and grief have always been near neighbors. An old, blunt, monosyllabic word — Germanic to the bone, no Latin perfume on it.
