Can Hate Be Someone's Love Language?

Can Hate Be A Love Language

There’s a book I read years ago about the concept of love languages.

My love language is touch, my wife’s is time.

As the world turns and people expose themselves on social media, I wonder if hate can be someone’s love language.

Hate is not listed in the book about Boundaries, but with so many people seemingly eager to hate these days, I wonder if it should be added.

All you have to do is disagree with their ideology, and BINGO, they hate you.

People who once talked with you, confided in you, came to your house for dinner parties, and one post on social media, and BAM, they hate you.

I disagree with a lot of people.

Kathy and I disagree.

But we love to love, we don’t look for reasons to hate anyone.

I wrote something about how Trump haters don’t understand him at all.

You’d think World War three had just started with the response I got, and this morning, folks from Eugene who hang out on Reddit are having a field day with me.

The problem for them is that I don’t read hate; I do what they should do is simply ignore.

Remember, my love language is touch, so I know when not to touch something as well as when to be all in.

Besides, I really don’t give a damn what they say; their problem is not mine.

Remember, before the pandemic, the same people who love to hate had signs in their yards signaling disdain for haters.

Now they are what they once hated.

That’s got to be listed under some kind of mental illness, don’t you think?

Probably exacerbated by Trump Derangement Syndrome.

This reminds me of the kindness movement a few years ago, pre-pandemic.

Remember all the signs in people’s yards that read “Choose Kindness?”

I find those people to be some of the biggest anti-kindness people in the world.

Those with the signs are usually the ones who said the most vile things to me online.

So next time one of these folks barfs buckets of hateful garbage and name-calling all over your social media, remind yourself, hate is their love language and smile as you block them from your page.
