Love
and
Hate
are typically thought to be the
endpoints
of a simple
continuum
for how we feel towards others. This is over simplified.
Love
and
Hate
both have a desire to do /something/ towards another person. What about not caring at all? Picture instead of a simple line of
Love
and
Hate
, a triangle. The
extreme
s of this triangle are
Love
,
Hate
, and
Indifference
.

I prefer to think of it as a circle, with the X values
quantify
ing
feeling
and the Y values quantifying
intensity
. What we are left with is "general
indifference
for" as the base of the circle, and "passionate about" at the top. Anything on the left (arbitrarily) represents the state of "liking" and conversely the right represents "disliking". Now, if one placed one's
emotional response
to another as the very centre of the circle, for example, it would indicate an average feeling toward someone with average intensity. The reason that the shape of emotion is circular is because the stronger someone feels about something, the less important the feeling; too, the more certain how someone is on how they feel about something, the more average the intensity.
