When does dislike turn into hate ?

With this hairdo, right here:

:rollno:
 
When you hear too many times boutique basses are a waste of money, and Leo got it right the first time. I now hate Fender.
JUST KIDDING!!!!! although it is getting old.

I love this saying I heard "Hate is not the opposite of love. Indifference is the opposite of love." Gotta have some emotional attachment of some sort to hate.

Being ex military, I can take out the enemy, and still respect they were just doing their job and I was doing mine. I don't hate much. Except Crystal Meth. There is an emotional reason there.
 
This is going to sound real sappy but, I really don't personally hate anyone so I dont know.. I hate things - the really nasty drugs and such, people I dont know - pedaphiles, people who hurt kids, and so on but that's it.

There are people in my life that I dislike, and there are people that have made me angry as hell, but I can say that I've never outright hated anyone. I guess I've just been lucky or maybe naive, but either way I can honestly say that I dont hate anyone. Of course there are ex's that hate me so I guess it evens out :P
 
Dislike is generally an aversion to something.
Hatred is a more extreme emotion that involves hostility and malice.

If you dislike someone, you wouldn't choose to keep their company, but you wouldn't wish harm to them. If you hate them, it's the same, but you either wish harm to them, or refuse to prevent harm coming to them.
 
No, because hatred is all too often about what somebody is rather than what they have done.

Dude. That's dislike.

How do I know. I was once best friends with a great guy. After knowing him for three years, he turned out to be THE BIGGEST SHOWOFF CUM POSER I EVER KNOWN/SAW IN MY LIFE. Ok, that was dislike.

Then he weaseled me out of a band that I created.
Now THAT'S HATE! :mad:
