Someone asked me if it is possible to love someone and yet not like them. I believe it is. If a person very close to you (such as a parent, a child, a sibling, a best friend) constantly behaves in a way that you just cannot stand, it is only natural for you to be annoyed, to experience a feeling of resentment. After having been patient over and over, at a certain point you realize that you would rather stay away from such person than to be in their presence and spend time with them.You love them dearly, you wish them well, you honestly want to see them happy. Yet, when they are around, you prefer... to be in another room, don't you? Should you feel guilty about such feeling? I don't think so. Why? Because people deserve to bear the consequences of their behavior, no matter what the family or friendship ties are. They behave badly most of the time? It's OK for you not to like them. Nevertheless, you still love them.
