If every action has an equal and opposite reaction,does love generate hate? Does hate generate love?
No. In my experience love creates more love, and hate creates more hate.
Aren't love and hate emotions rather than the scientific terminology for actions?
Spot on !!!
The action/reaction thing is a physical phenomenon. It can be observed and measured. Love and hate- not so much.
Love and hate have a relationship like light and darkness. One obviates the other--but not the other way around.
The opposite of Love isn't Hate and vice versa, it is indifference. Love and Hate are both powerful emotional responses towards someone or something. The opposite would be to have no emotional response whatsoever.
Familiarity breeds contempt, as they say.
I wouldn't say generate. I would say that opposites define each other. You cannot love without knowing hate -- doesn't mean the same person. The same is true in reverse. We learn about both as children watching people around us. It is a part of the programming we all receive as we grow.
People confuse love with interest it depends what the definition of love is for the individual. Once you’re not getting what you want out of that person then it turns into hate.
