What makes you hate someone? What are the possible causes and reasons? If you hate someone, how long does it takes for you to forgive? Do you think it's possible to live a life without hate?

What causes me to hate a person is if this person is a ingrate and no matter what happens always seems to blame other people.

Yeah, everyone don't like that kind of people who never appreciate what others did to them and can't accept his/her own mistakes and often blame others to save oneself from troubles. I get angry with those kind of people but I never hate them. Because if I do, then they will have the control on my emotions. ANyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

Hate is a very powerful word and feeling. I don't like to hate anyone, sometimes when someone makes me really mad I feel mad at that person but I don't think is hate. Usually if someone hurts my family in anyway I'm incapable of forgiving that person.

Yeah, hate is very intense emotional feelings that could ruin other people lives as well as ours, it's like a poison that will gradually kill our self. So we should be careful with this feelings. I get angry that last for days depends on the pain the person cause in my life, but later I forgive, that's the thing I make sure. In order to set myself free. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

I don't hate anyone. I do however hate some of the things people do and certain characteristics. I hate lying,stealing, cheating..etc. I hate blatant ignorance it is one of my pet peeves. The thing I hate most in some people is that they seem to think they are the only one that matters. Having no regard for the way others think or feel. Oh and let me not forget prejudice that is totally that is the characteristic I hate most in people. I realize all these things are needed in life for us to learn from one another. So I guess I really don't Hate these things as much as "strongly dislike"...lol

lol, yeah me as well don't like those people who think and believe that the world revolve around them and it will stop any time they like. Yeah I agree with you, we need all those things in order to live and have balance in our life. We need to learn, fight and get through with it, as in this world it battles between good and bad. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

I hate someone if he spills my secrets, makes a gossip, if he's taking me for granted and if he betrays me. And it takes years before I forgive him. I know that's rude but it's not easy for me to forgive once someone broke my heart. In some reasons there is a possibility to live a life without hate. but only few of them can live without hate in their hearts

Yeah, we don't like those people who betrayed us and gain something at our expense. Well it's a normal thing that we can't easily give forgiveness those people who offended us, but what matters is we forgive in the end. It all takes time. In life there were always comes a time when we hate and love others. That's part of our journey and we must all learn from it. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

I honestly can not say that I hate anyone. I dislike some things that people do and I choose not to around some people because the things they say can be rude and offending but I dont hate them. Hate is a very strong word. I was sexually molested as a child. I hated what was done to me but I don't hate the person who did it. Is it possible to live life without hate. Yes.... but first you have to learn how to forgive because your not going to like what people do and its what people do that makes you "hate" them. Now - I hate spinach and I can truly say that I hate spinach.

i cant hate any body its difficult to actually hate somone its not very easy thing but if i m hurt by som one i would not say i hate him/her if other excuses for 2 or 3 times and except his/her guilt i can easily forgive the person i think its possible to live without hate if u hav ability to forgive som one than there is no hate, and if u really hate som one its not easily possible to forgive

I hate people who cheat and those that are lying just to get back at you. I hate those people that always pretends to be kind but in reality they hate you too.
