Can you both love and hate someone at the same time?

[Well_Wisher]

Yes I love and hate a girl and same time for different reasons. I love her cause I have never met any other girl like her. I mean her personality is just like anyone would fall for her. The most caring girl I know and would never intentionally hurt someone's feeling but I hate her because she is in love and in relationship with someone who don't deserve to be dated by anyone. He is a kind of guy who is best to be a friends with but worst to be ever date. He has cheated her many times but she always forgives her after couple of months. To be clear I don't hate her because she don't love me or she chose him over me but the reason I hate her is dating such a jerk guy. I would have never hated her if she dated any other guy which I know.

This literally does not make sense.
People who say otherwise are probably not really hating or loving someone, but have some mixed feelings about that person. To hate and to love someone is a very distinctive and mutually exclusive feeling. If you hate someone, you cannot love them; If you love them, you cannot hate them.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

For me, you can hate certain things about someone but still love them. But if start to hate the person themselves, that will kill the love for me

[Minahh]

I think it's possible especially when that person caused you emotional pain but you are still deeply in love with him

[Desconhecida]

I believe sometimes we are so angry at someone we love that it could seem hate

[TonyV]

Oh yeah, we're friends, live pretty close but I've only seen her in person a couple of times this year? Drives me nuts, like, am i crazy for wanting to hang out with my friend?, sometimes I think it would be better to just move on and make new friend.

Someone important can definitely make live more difficult, and it would be hard to do but sometimes even tho you really like or love them you got to do what's best for you and move on from them.

[Jjpayne]

It's possible, an example is being told something critical about yourself that you know is right, lets say, you need to start giving your family more respect for example to someone in a place where that is a true word, it hits you hard and you hate him but you can't help but love him in that moment for his help and sticking up for your family

[Aakash_Hangargi]

Yes possible I hate myself yet also love myself same goes with someone else also there are somethings, which we can hate and like for example of you find you partner is too nice, the fact that they are nice you would love it about them then, other people may take advantage of that so you would hate the same thing about them

[websterII]

yes i think so.. it's toxic.. hope you never experience it. better to run from it.. than let it get that far. if you hate something and love it.. the love is probably misplaced. something certainly is.

[jmzero]

Yes. There is a woman i love dearly but because of her choices drives me mad. I had to cut all ties with her and that made it hurt more, made the feelings burn hotter, as well as the hate. Took a long time for that one to come to terms

[Agape93]

Yeah, but I personally can’t. I have no such middle ground.

[DanaeAdam5]

Same

[sawno]

No that is not possible, love and hate are opposites.
But you can have feelings for someone you hate and lust after them, which is a common misconception for love.

[Browneye57]

Talk about mass confusion.
You're discounting the strength of one or the other, cuz if you have one emotion for someone you can't have the other. They're diametrically opposed.

[RACSKC0B]

Someone once told me "Just because you love someone, it doesn't mean you have to like them."
He wasn't wrong.

[MissDawn7961]

I do not like my oldest sister Sharron for she is verbally mean to me but I do care about her and she is in my prayers too ! thanks

[Kaneki05]

Yup and i would say that's pretty normal on circumstances "You love me for everything you hate me for".

[OnlyMyOpinion]

Yeah. I was built in a way where I sort of have to love everyone. But I can hate them too for over 30 seconds.

[NamerOfStars]

Of course. Just find a nerd, and ask them about George Lucas.

[AaronKrieger]

Yep, it sucks because you wish you never met them, but at the same time you love the person.

[potatoiswhoiam]

I don't think so, one has to be very strong feeling, the other less intense for it to work.

[Liam_Hayden]

I can't because my definition of love includes seeking the best for the person. If I were to hate someone I would seek the worst for that person.

[OddBeMe]

Sure. It’s simply emotions. Logically speaking it’s just caring about someone who has hurt you. The caring could decrease and hate ensues.

[crmoore]

I personally haven't experienced and I'd imagine it's technically possible but very, very unlikely.

[simplelikeme]

I don't see why not. I mean it's called a love-hate relationship for a reason LMAO

[mrgspoter]

Yes can be love, can hate things a person does who you love same thing I think

[Static_In_The_Attic]

Sure you can, a love hate relationship!

[JaneDoe377]

Yes I think it's possible.

[Ravan0143]

Ofcourse yes, it's depends on situation.. mostly.

[JosyJosy]

Think so, people aren't perfect

[AmeerX]

Hate her stubbornness love her loyalty

[Iron_Man]

That's how I feel about you. Lol Joke

[wendy90]

No, we have different motives

[MDF_ANJ]

It's called being a parent

[ThatKidInTheCorner]

When younger, siblings

[Kimgary]

Do you have a junior sister?

[asshole_]

You could technically, but, not really

[Anonymous]

Not by my definitions

[Cryptic-Game]

I don't think that's possible.

[lolcraft]

The opposite of love is apathy, not hate.

[KeziL]

parents

[COMMODOREII]

isn't that what parents say? 😗

[Anonymous]

I am confused of this too

[KrakenAttackin]

This is called bi-polar disorder.
