Of all the icy blasts that blow on love, a request for money is the most chilling.

Gustave Flaubert
About This Quote

When you are in love, people are nice to you. They are always asking how your day is going or asking if you have anything that you can do for them. However, when you are in love with someone, the one thing they ask for is money. This can be really frustrating when you are in love and want nothing more than to show your love and dedication to the one person you love most.
