Is the usage of 'only' correct [duplicate]
A: Why are you doing this?
B: You only asked for this, didn't you?
Is the usage of only here correct so as to mean you were the one who?
Solution 1:
No, it isn't correct. It would mean All you did was ask for this.
For the meaning you want it would be better to say
You were the one who asked for this, weren't you?
In old-fashioned literary language, you could say
You only are the one I love (meaning only you)
