6.6.40

yatrābhigamane vyayavati pūrvo viruddhaḥ prabhāvavān prāpsyate na veti saṃśayo 'nabhigamane ca krodhād anarthaṃ kariṣyati na veti sa ubhayato 'narthasaṃśayaḥ//

(d) When a courtezan is uncertain, whether, on going at her own expense to see an old enemy, he would take back from her what he may have given her, or whether by her not going to see him he would cause some disaster to fall upon her, this is called a doubt on both sides about loss.

Richard Francis Burton & Foster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot 1883, The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana
