i see you are new to mylot. welcome to mylot. i am not too sure. mad and hate are not really the same. you could be mad at someone but still love them at the same time. but hate becomes evil eventually.

For me, mad, is when someone got angry at a person's action which had either directly or indirectly affected him. Degree may vary from slight to an intense feeling but there's a possibility that when the issue had been cleared out and sincere apologies were asked and accepted, this emotion may calm down or totally vanish. Hate, is also anger at its highest intensity that may have rooted from a very grave offense done to someone where explanations could not just wipe away the pain and anguished it caused on the offended party.

Hello sarameastrong. :) Mad and hate are often misinterpreted like the two words mad and angry; but few people know that the word MAD does not necessarily mean a negative connotation such as words like hate and angry. According to dictionary.com, mad "also" means: wildly excited or confused, overcome by desire, eagerness and enthusiasm or wildly gay or merry. For instance, when used in a sentence like "I am madly in love with you"; the word 'mad' did not mean a negative meaning at all. :) So it's a bit different when you say you mad or hate someone. Hate is a strong word, it's like a curse so I rarely use the word when I'm angry with someone. I can be "mad" sometimes because I don't like the feeling of being angry.. and hate is just too strong a word that it's should not be included in everyone's vocabulary :D

mad can be a temporary anger but hate is quite deeper that you don't even want to see the person you hated.
