    Yeah, at some point, a person just has to find a way to tune out his or her environment.
    This is no way to live, however. Anybody in such a situation should do what it takes to become independent sooner rather than later.

    i dont rally hate anybody, like i said in my introduction thread. i do dislike and am upset at people for what they did, but i dont hate.
    Hate is a powerful word and i try to use it as little as possible. I think the only time i could hate someone is if they are attempting to hurt me and my family deliberately, or Hitler, i hate Hitler.

    Well I'm kind of bumping my thread but I want to tell a little story of something that just happened. It's 10:57pm and I heard my brother start screaming and cussing at his girlfriend. I don't know what the argument was about, but I'm sure it started with some stupid insult or something. She started crying and screaming back at him and he hit her. My mom tried to calm him down but it made him more mad. I'm not sure what to do about this. He is hate personified. The fact is that no one likes him in my family. He's a terrible person. He's self-centered, a slop, and a downright psychopath. They're still fighting now. This is definitely not an ordinary relationship fight. It actually reminds me exactly of a fight he got in with his ex in 2009. I'm guessing she'll forgive him or something, but the relationship won't last I guarantee.

    I'm not taking part in this argument at all, but even still I feel a strong hate towards him again. I wish things could just go back to the way they were. It was just me and my mom and we never fought or argued once. *sigh* Oh yeah, his girlfriend hit my mom's car. Things are getting worse, but I'll stop here.

    That guy need a good beating. He needs to learn to control his anger and take responsibility.He should also learn to stop being a massive (Expletives deleted)That sucks on (Expletive deleted).

    He reminds me of my Dad...But this punk is much worse.

    His girlfriend also needs to learn to drive.

    Well, my brother and I have had some rough points in our relationship akin to those you mentioned, PhatBoyFresh, but we've gotten better over the years, whereas your brother seems to have some unresolved issues. I believe that your family should try to work this out. It can be a long, drawn-out process that at times will seem futile, but people like your brother do change, given the opportunity. He certainly doesn't sound happy, which means on some level he probably knows he's doing something wrong. It's possible that this issue will work itself out, and that you and your brother will simply grow apart and live your respective lives, but you should keep trying to help him, even if you hate him. The alternative is not pleasant.

    For myself, I have hated people within a moment, but that just goes to show one thing; I hated what they did or how they acted, but I could not have hated the sum of all that they were. I hate things, not people. A thing can be constant, but a person is always changing.

    Hate like love is part of life, it cannot be avoided, just contained. Me i'm not all that fond of the human race in general, but I don't let my disdain for mankind ruin my day, I just deal with it and learn to ignore the multitude of stupid things people do. On a more personal level I never cared for my little sister, I guess that makes me a horrible person, but well, if you knew her you'd understand, she's....shes not a very good person. So it can be hard to put up with her, but I do my best.

    As for how to deal with hate towards me, most of which being online of course do to the immaturity of many net users, lol.

    I just

    -Ignore it/let it slide: Most trolls aren't worth acknowledging
    - Try to reason: If theres a chance the troll/parasprite may be reasoned with, I will try

    But yeah people online will always try to bash you for one thing or another, just part o net life, and in real life you'll always have at least a few people you don't care for, just gotta make sure your hate doesn't consume you, s'all about being in control of your emotions and having the mental/emotional maturity to deal with them properly.

    Instead of feeling like you have to look up to him, look down at him.
