When you really hate someone but you dont know why.....

[Lotus]

Has this happened to any of you? Where you meet someone and for whatever reason you just can't effing stand them (or explain to yourself or anyone else why you can't stand them)? Just kinda curious

[MerEmma]

I'd say most people experience that. It happens to me all the time. I always try to change my opinion about them but about 80% of the time I still don't like them.

[Mermaid Kelda]

Yeah, I get that too. I usually dislike people for their opinions or attitude, but when I've only just met someone and don't know anything about them, it's hard to explain my immediate dislike xD
I think it's got something to do with the way people talk, the way they hold themselves, and general body language in conversation. Even if I can't explain it at the time, I just sort of... know that I don't like them.
Obviously I always give it time before I judge, though! Sometimes it's just people being nervous, or having a bad day, or any number of things.

Yeah, there have been a handful of people in my life that just rub me the wrong way right off the bat. I don't know why, but I just don't like them... which is always odd to me cause I'm usually a very friendly person who is always making friends XD

[Mermaid Tula]

Its a gut feeling thing. I get it occasionally. It's worse now that I have a 5 year old girl, so I get very wary around men who are a little too interested in her. Most of the people I don't like, I have normal reasons to not like them. But there are those people who you just have a strong hate and you don't understand why. It's a part of our brain that's still lizard.

Often times it's actually your pheromones they naturally attract and repel certain types of people, some people's pheromones just repel against each other which leads to automatic dislike before they've even opened their mouths.

I get this a lot too. Not just because there's certain types of people I don't mesh well with, I also seem to have this weird instinct where I can almost immediately tell if someone is a bad person. Pretty much 100% of the time I end up being right in the most obvious of ways, to the point where those closest to be know to never question my judgement, lol.

Yeah, this happens to me a lot too. Most of the times it happens it's with middle-aged men. I guess being a young teen, that's kind of a good thing in a way.
But there was also just this one girl in my ballet class who just annoyed me SO much and I don't know why. I would always think things like, "Look at her there. She's just so smug, looking at me like I'm nothing. I oughta slap her in the face!"
The funny thing is that she actually began to hate me a lot for no reason later on. It wasn't like I was being really mean to her, it was just in my head. I smiled at her often, but she never smiled back. And after Christmas break, my friend asked me if I got that foot stretcher I wanted (which I did) so I told her "yes" and she was talking to me about if for a while, and that girl came up to me and said "That's cheating. You can't use that." Me and my friend just kind of looked at her funny and then my friend said, "Oooh, I think someones jealous!" in a very sing-songy way. When the girl left, we both burst out laughing! Haha!
But yeah, we both just kinda hate each other now.
