Hating someone gives them power over you because hatred just eats you inside. It's physically and psychologically damaging. Put them out of your life and realize how pathetic they are. Don't even give them another thought.

To me, that's what hating someone eventually entails...like I said, hate doesn't need to consume you for it to just "be there"...starts strong, becomes a neutral avoidance system.

Well, thing is, how she chooses to live works for her.
I can be A-OK with no contact whatsoever, ever again with certain family members...because I'm happy with how that is...in fact when I was around them, they were constantly bringing ME down. That was the cancer I felt necessary to remove.
But like I said...it never effects those around me, because those it would effect, are NOT around me. Doesn't feel like anything GOOD to me is missing.

Very true. Plus, hating some people is easy and doesnt require much work, its just a natural reaction.

Thank you, this is exactly the point I was trying to make.
