That very person hates me to bits (3,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

the same

'that very person' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'hates me to bits' is the wordplay.
'to bits' is an anagram indicator.
'hates'+'me'='hatesme'
'hatesme' with letters rearranged gives 'THE SAME'.

(Another definition for the same that I've seen is " Identical - unchanged".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
