Is there a person in your life that you absolutely hate and despise? Has this person ever done anything to you or to a loved one? Why do you hate this person?

There is only one person alive that even comes close to being worth the effort of being hated by me.
I refuse to give names, but she is someone I once cared about, although not as deeply as she might have wanted me to, that ended up (much to my satisfaction) with a friend of mine.
This person recently hurt that friend of mine, and has earned my contempt.
I call few people "friend", and even less people "good friends" and consider myself rabidly loyal to those individuals.
If you harm my friend...I am your enemy.
Right now, I wouldnt run across the street to piss up her ass, if her guts were on fire.

There are four people in this world I hate. I use the phrase "hate" very sparingly...to me, it connotates something so deep that, much like love, needs to be restricted to those who truly earn it.
edited because way to revealing...TG me if you want the story.
Nothing will ever convince me that they deserve a second chance.

I hate one person. My father.
He made my childhood living hell, he was violent (both physical and mentally), he was abusive, he hurt me in any way he possibly could. And in some ways, he broke me for life.
My schizophrenia, my psychoses, my fears, my nightmares... it will always be there, thanks to him.

That shows great strength and all I can do is say "Kudos" to you and raise my glass: *raises*

Sometimes I wonder if I shouldn't envy the weaker ones... those who just give in.
But thanks for the "Kudos" :D
Not really, hate requires a lot of energy and I'm a lazy bastard. ;)

I hate one person. My father.I hate my father too, for much the same reasons.
There are a number of other people that I really, really don't like and can't stand to be around, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that I hate them. That honour is reserved for my father.

I used to hate my father. He is dead and I am alive. I am also a much better person than he ever could have hoped to be. That is my curse to his memory.
There have been others, but now no one threatens me or mine so I have better things to do with my energy than hate.

I don't hate anyone all the time. Sometimes, when my girlfriend talks about one of her more unpleasant exes, I'll think "I really hate that person for doing that thing she just told me about", but most of the time I'm just grateful to them all for fucking up.

I hate one or two people....
I used to absolutely loathe and despise the staff of my primary school who were complicit in my systemic bullying in its later years. Recently, however, I have realised that it needed to happen at some point. Until then, I had lived in a secluded bubble, never questioning the world or those around me. It took something like that to wake me up to the harsh reality of life and to instill in me a proper purpose.

theres two people who i think are composed from the dregs of existence but theyre so pathetic i wouldnt waste my time hating them
Hate? I don't actually think so.
I have several that I veiw as threats to me, but not hate. I don't think I have enough focused energy to pull that off.

There are people who I used to hate, but as they're no longer in my life, my enmity for them has died down.

No, you shouldn't envy them. You actually bent, but didn't break. Yes, you've got some stress fractures and scarring, so to speak, but you've proven that you can take the worst of the worst.
At this point, you should realize that nothing can actually stand in your way from accomplishing anything you really want. You can go anywhere, do anything, and succeed.
You've had your gauntlet--time to kick some ass, Cabra. ;)

I can truthfully say that there is no one in my life who I hate. There are a few who I assiduously avoid, but none that I truly hate. I suppose it's just not in me to hate. :fluffle:

Hate is useful tool. I can use it to motivate me when pretty much nothing else will. For instance, if I've got, say, 8 hours before an essay deadline and no research, no sources and no internet I'll focus my rage on my tutors. Once I've whipped up enough hatred for my tormentors, I can get achieve anything (up to a 2:1 at least) before I use my rationality to claw my emotions back under control. I know, rationally, that my tutors aren't trying to make me suffer but allowing myself that blazing hatred enervates my soul.
To this end, I maintain a low level of simmering loathing for the Coven of Six that not only made my highschool life deeply depressing but also messed up several of my friends. I can safely say that the Dark Side got me through uni.
There was only a handful of people I loathed and would have been more than happy to end. These were my tormentors I had gotten stuck with every year in school until 8th grade when I moved. The last I heard they had gotten themselves with cocaine. Otherwise, it's very hard to get myself to downright hate someone.

It might sound cliche, but relying on hate is somewhat dangerous. When fierce negative passion controls your judgement, it will drive you to do and say things that your reason would otherwise reject and that have long-lasting consequences. You need to be very careful that it doesn't consume you and leave you an angry old man that dies alone, irreparably despising everything and everyone around him, for that is the inevitable result of a life that uses hatred as its motivation.

A very good point. I only use hate when I've run out of everything else. Most of the time, I don't even let it border on my life. My hatred for the Coven is usually just a guideline to remind me not to become like them. If I'm faced with two equally valid decisions, the one that will confound the Coven is the one I select.
If you'd met them, you'd understand. They represent the worst of our generation: Intolerant hypocrites with smiling faces who treat people not like them like dirt. They represent the soulless establishment, the faithless evangelical. They offend me on every level; Moral, philosophical and psychological. Worst of all, they look good enough to corrupt everyone around them. That they claim to be christian sickens me, at the same time as their smiling, cute fanaticism would twist the guts of anyone of alternative religious position (including atheism).
But my hate is controlled. I've decided that if I don't find a way to exploit my emotions, someone else will. So Love is my fuel, Hate is my weapon.

I am too weak emotionally to hate. I mostly have no strong feelings (except for loneliness). Might be the reason I've got so few friends...

Depression is surprisingly rampant in the North. I was at this poetry bash and 3/5 of the poems were about being lonely. It made me feel not lonely, knowing that so many people were much lonelier than I. I wonder if there's a correlation between frequency of sauna visits and loneliness...

There are few people that I constantly hate in person, and when it comes to them, my hatred is hardly especially intense. (in most cases, I stay emotionally detached in relation to others, except in specific situations) I however hate humanity, and a large part of what makes a person human.
I should also note that when it comes to my hatred for humanity, the purely emotional part of it (ie, what is "felt") is only the tip of the iceberg. The same goes for many other of the things I hold emotions in regard to. Except for in extreme situations, my emotions typically don't get very intense, and can be best described as the sharp edge of what I "feel" at an intellectual level.

I hate my kindergarten teacher. That was 49 years ago. She's been dead for years. Go to her grave from time to time to spit on it.
If your dad hit you just 'cause you didn't want to join a decathalon team, would you hate him? Would you hate him if he threatened to become a drunkard and endanger your family if you don't play football? I would, and I do.
At least I'm a wee better at poetry.

I suppose I could hate my parents for screwing up my life, but at this point, I'm screwing it up myself without any help from them. I guess I would have to say that my negative emotions are reserved for people who are making my life a miserable, living hell right now - my boss and her boss - I am the only person left in the Department who is not either a friend or a relative of one of them, and since I am not one of the "favored many", I bear the brunt of the negativity in the office.
I don't 'hate' anyone. I'm not passionate enough for that emotion.

One. I will not speak her name, but she toyed with my heart. For three years, I might add. Toyed and twisted...and when I finally found out and all the walls came down, she acted like the victim and tried to take me to court. I countersued and won. I don't ever wish to see her again, and if I do...I may not be responsible for my actions. And I am a kind man. Extremely kind. Few people earn my contempt, and even fewer can earn my hatred. She, however, has done so.
