Olivia Wilde reflects on the good and bad of love nearly three months after splitting from Harry Styles.

The ‘Don’t Worry Darling’ director, 38, shared an excerpt of author John Steinbeck’s letter to his son Thom on Valentine’s Day, which explains different types of love.

“There are different kinds of love. One is a selfish, mean, greedy, selfish thing using love for self-importance. It’s the ugly and crippling kind,” he wrote in the 1958 note.

“The other is an outpouring of all that is good in you — of kindness and consideration and respect — not just the social respect of manners, but the greater respect that is recognizing another person as unique and valuable.”

The letter concludes, “The first kind can make you sick and small and weak, but the second can release within you strength, courage, and kindness, and even wisdom you didn’t know you had.”

“It’s the longest relationship Harry has ever had, so they clearly have a special bond.”

Following the split, the former One Direction singer has been spending the holidays with his mother Anne Twist and sister Gemma Styles in England.

Wilde, on the other hand, is focused on spending time with her two children: Otis, 8, and Daisy, 6, who she shares with ex Jason Sudeikis.

On Tuesday, Ericka Genaro, the former nanny of Wilde and the “Ted Lasso” star, filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against the former couple for firing her after she asked to take a three-day “stress vacation” the “radio” would have involved silence,” Page Six’s lawsuit states.

Genaro is seeking punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and the costs of the litigation.

Page Six was the first to report that Styles and Wilde were dating in 2021 after the former couple were photographed holding hands at the wedding of the “Watermelon Sugar” singer’s manager.
