“So You Don’t Have to Love Me Anymore” expresses bitter love. It has once blossomed then turned into something unpleasant and agonizing. The words say it all, and the title itself is painful enough that love isn’t there anymore.

Perhaps, there is love. However, it is a love that sacrificed and risked the happiness for both parties to respect each other. It is true, a situation told in a song happens. There are people in the world who love each other but needed to separate for better reasons. There might be love towards each other, but it is not enough to make it work. That’s all there is the need to be apart, to be alone to learn to live and love themselves on their own.
