Where do wewe draw the line between disliking a person and hating them?

I try to avoid hating people now. I learned that I don't care enough to hate people.

It's a pretty simple line for me. I truly start to hate someone when their bad actions change from being annoying/distasteful to outright abusing people and causing them significant pain.

I tend to throw around the word "hate" a lot for really petty things, but I could probably count on one hand the people that I truly despise. Like despise as in would probably light on fire.

I don't. You're either my best friend, au mortal enemy.

Dislike is for anyone I find annoying, aggravating, douchey, disrespectful etc.

Hate is extremely rare for me and it's for people who have done harm to my family, Marafiki au myself personally.

Almost always I classify people that I hate/dislike in the same group so it's like the same for me.

Let's just say wewe have to do something pretty bad for me to hate you. I start to hate someone if they did one truly awful thing au if they are persistently awful to me.

Example: I dislike that kid who was an punda to me in third grade. I hate the kid who treated me like shit every other siku for about three years.
