: Well, double negative is wrong in terms of grammar. And it sounds more like
: African American (no offense) type of English.
: Anyway, generally speaking, if I hear sentence like this, I will think "he/she
: doesn't love me anymore". In other word, I interpret this sentence as
: "I don't love you anymore".
Double negative is very common in Black English.

They all mean sheer negative.
Check some songs containin' this type of phrase.
