Love & Hate

***Is it possible to love and hate the same person ?

Or would you say something was wrong with the picture ?

YES, my husband....;]

Re: Love & Hate

The way i see it is that ..since love is STRONGER than 'like' ....you can not love and hate the same person .. because if you hate something about a person then you wudnt be loving that person.. and what is love .. to over look the negatives negatives lead to hate..but if it was like and hate .. tehn yes its possible to hate the same person and like at the same time .. because you may like some aspects or actions of the person but at the same time hate the negatives of that..

i.e. Love is Full encompases everything ...yani ''khaas' over 'aaam'' where as like is partial - ''aaam'' and not fully encompasing.

Hope it makes sense lol :)

:omg:

There you go shyne

Re: Love & Hate

Isn't there a saying that love and hate are two sides of the same coin - both engage the passions of a person for someone else.

As for loving a person and hating a person - I think each of us has a person or relationships in our lives where we both love and hate the actions or behaviours of the indvidual, rather than the person themself.

Re: Love & Hate

Love and hate relationships never work...

I say hate someone truly or Love them... no middleground.

Hatred cannot possibly be intertwined with love otherwise Palestine would be free.

I love to hate you... I hate to love you....

Does make sense , however isn't there always that "one" habit that you hate even in a person that you love..........

I would think what shapes the relationship is which emotion , love or hate , takes precedance and outweighs or negates the other .***


Sehrysh thats what i'm talking about.......both Love and Hate are very "pure" emotions and up until recently I would have dealt with them in Black & White......so that I've always either loved a person or hated them....no middle-ground.

But its this grey area where both emotions merge that is confusing me. ***


I think since they are both contrasting emotions , there is a middle-ground where both merge and blur and give rise to a sense of confusion.***

Re: Love & Hate

Hate is not the opposite of Love,opposite of Love is Indifference...
when u love someone...u can hate them for their certain actions and behaviors...but u never hate the person u have loved..
where there is love...there is hate..
but when there is indifference..therez no love..or hate.

Yup, anything's possible!!

Re: Love & Hate

YUP, it's possible. It is said that love and hate are two sides of the same coin.....that they're so similar to one another that the "opposite" of love is not hate....rather the opposite is "indifference."

The more you love someone.....you hold them in higher regard....the higher the regard....the greater the expectations....the greater the expections.....the GREATER it hurts when the individual lets you down or betrays you.....the GREATER it hurts....the MORE anger you feel....and it's this anger (be it temporary) is what IMO we refer to as "hate."

Plus, I've also heard and read and observed that a love/hate relationship is a pretty intense one.

Apart from the romantic sense.....you could love your sibling and claim to "hate" them when you're frustrated with them. So, it's possible to hate someone you love....and often times it's a fleeting or temporary hatred that can come and go depending upon the situation.

Yes i wud agree on a certain level .. but like Faris ..i am also of the same opinion that there is no middle ground .. however, to what you say ..there is that 'one' particle of hate .. yes its possible .. but going back to my opinion .. if you love someone FULLY .. that that 'one' bit of hate really stays ''silent'/''hibernate'' in the background .. resulting that it doesnt really matter about that 'one' hate cos you love some one so dearly.

and if for all time you love someone so dearly .. over time .. that 'one' bit dissapears.

Re: Love & Hate

yes

definitely. you can love someone, but have moments of pure hate for them.
