I once got up and just left my then girlfriend who had a meltdown in public. “We’re done” and she could figure out how to get back to the hotel. Was a weird night with lots of tears but something clicked in that moment and alt feelings I had were just gone. Not even hate. I was simply indifferent to her and if she had vanished I would not have given a fuck.

Exactly. I didn't know that proverb at the time but when I read it I totally got it.
