The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. Do you agree or not?

Not at all. No revenge....believe me had I wanted revenge I had plenty to go on....and a lot of people could have got very very hurt.
For my peace of mind I had to let go. I no longer love the person.....but really truly didn't want to wear myself out hating. Maybe I could actually see him in the street, smile and say hi instead of saying nothing. But I wouldn't love him or hate him....
But its true to say I no longer care what goes on in his life. I used to. Now I just think....good for him....but it has nothing to do with me. If I never heard his name again.. thats ok too

@RubySoo I understand, but still I'm confused about one thing. You said "I'd like the chance to face him out and show him I no longer give two hoots". If you really don't give two hoots, why would you wish for this scenario? It would appear that a part of you still cares what he thinks. That's just the way it appears.

@SW-User I can see why you would see it that way. It's a very valid question. I guess what I mean is.....the proof if whether I really am indifferent would only really be known if I saw him. If I could ignore him, or smile and walk tall then I could truly say I'm indifferent.
There is always the chance....I'd see him and react in the opposite way....my heart would pound and my knees would buckle and all those feelings...love and hate would flood back. It actually happened before.... when there hadn't been enough time and distance between us.

Now I feel im strong enough....that I would finally be able to show he no longer had any power over me.

@lakergoy It is logically, but I meant emotionally.

Hmmmmm. Many head smacks have made my hate a bit more hateful than most... Never mind that i was a bit judgemental before. I'm no longer qualified to even pretend to know that answer

@SW-User Nice play on words there. :-)

@Zoranna thank you, but I am only half playing. I really do despise the stuff.

@SW-User I love indifference. After love turns to hate....indifference is bliss.

@SW-User What I meant by indifference was not caring any longer.

@Zoranna That's not hate though. Great question.

@SW-User Thanks. :-)

@SW-User yes!

@SStarfish What I was trying to say was when you fall out of love with someone you don't hate them you simply don't care any longer.

@ringtaster No, not at all. What I was trying to say is that when you fall out of love you don't hate the other person, you simply don't care any longer.

@Pianist1234 For some it may well be.

@mathsman Indeed it does, but that was in October last year so who knows now. :-)

@Zoranna
You mean you can't remember why you asked it?

@mathsman I can actually, it was prompted by another question at the time. "Hate" was being bandied around and I think it's such a powerful word often misused, but that's just my opinion.

@in10RjFox Thanks. :-)

@EnigmaticGeek Fair enough. I was using in the context of having fallen out of love but not hating them, being indifferent to them.

@SoulKey BouT $1,000,000

@SoulKey Good question. Lillymoon has a nice answer. :-)

@Zoranna makes sense 🤔

@antonioio Thank you. Yes, particularly the person who hates.

@Jackaloftheazuresand True.

@sunnydreams Food for thought huh?

@Zoranna It really is... I love those kinds of philosophical questions... you could ponder on it all day. ha

@sunnydreams You could. :-)

@SW-User Yes, there are lots of different meanings. I was talking about passionate love in the main.

@SStarfish Fair enough.

@SW-User and I understand your stance too. Only once in my life did in hate a person.....but I hated myself more for allowing the situation to get to the point it did. I couldn't go on destroying myself.
I can hate people's actions, situations, decisions....but not a person. Its just too destructive on myself

@RubySoo I wish you all the best in reconstructing, and not destructing yourself.;) You're worth it. We all are.

@SW-User thank you. Yes....we are. I've enjoyed our correspondence x

@bijouxbroussard Thank you Bijoux, that's exactly what I meant.
