are you afraid to be hated? poll for fun yes I'm afraid there are people , I'm cautious of...

It is potentially dangerous to be hated by someone, or some group, so even if not afraid, it would be wise to be aware and alert to any possible harm that may come, especially in today’s crazy, hate filled, clown world.

Not in any way afraid.

The few things that I am afraid of, I actually seek out. Meaning, I attempt to overcome that fear.

Example: at five years old I was afraid to swim. So I went to the deepest part of the pool and swam underwater all the way to the shallow end.

I've been hated by some but mostly picked on from my childhood and teenager. Result from depression to f my life through Partying and drugs.

Not worse I was anymore but the aftermath just won't go away.

I’m sort of used to it. I’ve experienced prejudice as far back as I can remember. People are capable of hating based on the most trivial of things. I don’t seek it, but I don’t worry too much, either. I try to treat others fairly and hope for the best.

Yes, I’m afraid of being hated so I do change how I act around people so that I fit in more. There is however a line that I can’t or won’t cross, the edge of my personality I suppose, so some people do or have hated me.

No. I think most dislike me here for my conservative views on particular topics and do be it.

Queendragonfly · 31-35, F

Yes, when I have found people I like in a group I am afraid at first.

SW-User

Not afraid, just a modicum of carefulness.

I'm used to being hated by now. I was always uncomfortable with it before and would spend a lot of time wondering why someone hated me. Now, it's whatever.

Used to it

I don't like to be hated, but I'm used to it.

DerSilberneKonig1 · 22-25, M

Nope don't give af, won't go out of my way to make people hate me, but if they hate me for a single action or sentence i said, regardless of how long ago or recent it was, it's not my problem. They can hate me from afar or keep their mouth shut cause i'm beyond done with the drama lol

SW-User

Nah, I’m already hated by quite a few

dirge

I'm pretty sure I have embraced it.

Here?...nah, in real life ? - well that depends what people do with their hate .
If it's just silent seething and avoidance ....then that's not a problem, but if it's expressed in sabotage and trying to make me hurt, then ...maybe a little .

Maybe not afraid per se, but it makes you wary and alert ....and that's no way to have to deal with people everyday 🫤

Haters gonna hate. You're not going to be friends with everyone. Focus on being yourself and people will like you.

SW-User

Generally, no. I’m not foolish enough to be public enemy #1. I realized that some people are going to hate you no matter what you do or you don’t do. There are people who hate you and don’t even know you, just because of what you look like.

If I’m doing what I need to do and they hate me, it’s on them. Those haters can kiss my ass.

No. I tell it how it is, if people can't handle it, that's their problem, not mine.
