Hate at first glance, did you ever felt that way towards somebody? someone you know nothing at all yet you have this strong feeling that you actually hate that person? I actually felt that way towards someone, in this case one of my colleagues, I hate his guts, the first time i met him I know that he and I will never get along. Maybe because he's manner the way he carry himself, too much confident and disrespectful. I'm just so glad that he'll be transferring to other department and that I won't be seeing his face first thing in the morning. I just wished he could disappear for life. I'm mean girl now but, as I keep on saying my attitude depends on the persons to whom I'm talking or dealing with.

It is funny because a very close friend of mine asked me about that just a couple of months ago. She asked me if it ever happened that I've felt hatred toward somebody that I hardly know. She felt that way towards a new girl in our company. Then recently, we have discovered that this girl is currently the mistress of our close friend's husband. My very close friend concluded that she hates the girl perhaps because she can sense that the said girl brings trouble.

Oh yes i did have someone i loathed the first time i saw him. There's an air in his head. Similar to the person that you hate. He was a colleague too and after a few months we got into an argument. Later i learned that the more i loathed him the more burdened i was. So i let go of that hate. Ignore his presence. Talk to him when necessary until finally he quit his job and i didn't have to see him anymore.

I have felt that way before. I don't know what it is but I get a strange feeling when that happens to me. Look, we cannot like everyone, right? But, I get a sense of uneasiness when I feel that way so I stay away and do not get involved.

We had a very unpleasant experience yesterday. I found that someone hates me. He spoke about me with such hatred in his voice and eyes that I was shocked. And still feel now, whenever I remember, a knot in the stomach. I would have thought that someone can have such feelings toward me and express them with such pathos. I, even though I'm not the kind of person that would please everyone and not a pink slip adored by the entire galaxy, is still a normal person, decent, polite, able to live with little success under any circumstances. I have not yet had major conflicts are not fought with anyone, I do know that when someone is mad at me, rightly or wrongly, and take steps for reconciliation. I'm not like that to wear ill blood or sorrow. I tried to remember if I ever had the feeling of hatred towards anyone. No. I had not. Ok, I'm not friends with everyone but me is easy to have cordial relations with others, would be a long way to go before the hate.

I've never hated a person at a first glance. There could be annoyance, but never felt hatred at the first glance. His personality and mannerisms are somewhat annoying which leads to hatred.

haha not really hate. hate is too strong a word. :D i would say that yes sometimes there are people that you have met once or for the first time and you feel as if you would not like this person, and you feel that you do not want to be with this person, and thinks you won't get along well. it happens really to all of us. :D you never know, but maybe the feeling is mutual. haha

I don't think I've ever hated anyone. Or could hate anyone.

Hi, It happens sometimes. We all have a typical nature that can be different from each other. We may get attracted with somebody so quickly at the same time, we may get irritated on certain people with upon their nature. The way of talk, behaviour and such many thing could be the causes. Even I dislike certain people without prejudice to anything. Simply some of their nature cannot accept and sometime their physical appearance or anything like. As per my nature, if I hate someone at first glance, it may remain for ever. Though I am not a typical person and I try to coop with others. However, as you said, some people cause us dislikes, it can be mainly due to the imbalance with their behaviior and our nature. Thank-s

It happens, and its very natural for anyone to feel like this to some people- mostly strangers. Your definition for such like feelings is somehow cool, I usually call it 'Warm-blooded hatred' because it comes in without a warning and usually uncontrollable. By the way, it hard to control such kind of hatred...

yes its true.hate at first glance and i think everyone has experienced this is life and have a sure answer to this.Sometimes we hate a person whom we never met and never talked for no reason at all & judge him just by his looks.This is i suppose because we are either feel insecure or we want the way he or she should have been according to what we expect in our mind.When i went to join in a hostel this same thing happened to me.I hated the person for his attitude,his behaviour.Later he tried to befriend me and gradually we became friends and now everything what i thought about him disaapeared and still we are friends..very funny.

hi:) yes I felt that on my best-friend ex-boyfriend, when she first introduce him to me I got this feeling that he will just make my friend cry,he is so proud and talk so egoistic, as in he thinks he is so handsome,when you see him you can already tell from his words and actions that he don't know how to be in a serious relationship, but I didn't mention this feeling to my best-friend until now that they already broke up.

Sometimes I would have that feeling, of hating somewhere right when you glance at them the first time. But then I get to know them, and realize that they aren't THAT bad, but maybe could be better in how they present themselves, because that was my first impression of them. Most of the time, I realize how much I dislike someone after hanging out with them for a little bit. It doesn't bug me and first, but then the disrespectful things that they do here and there make me realize that I really dislike their company, but I don't know what to do about it because we're technically "friends!" ):
