"My friend KC called it quits with her man of six-plus years via text message--a digital upgrade from the famous Carrie Bradshaw and Berger Post-it scenario. He said &amp;amp;#8220;he needed some space.&amp;amp;#8221; It&amp;amp;#8217;s now going on two weeks and he hasn&amp;amp;#8217;t returns any calls, emails or texts, and she&amp;amp;#8217;s livid, infuriated and drinking heavily. The saying goes that you can dislike someone, but you cannot truly hate until you&amp;amp;#8217;ve fully loved them. I guess that&amp;amp;#8217;s where the phrase &amp;amp;#8216;love-hate relationship&amp;amp;#8217; stems from. I don&amp;amp;#8217;t think I hate anyone anymore, although I&amp;amp;#8217;m often displeased with some people. I&amp;amp;#8217;m displeased with Juan, who stood me up for a mattress pickup on Sunday, while I was moving out of my apartment, even though he promised he wouldn&amp;amp;#8217;t flake. I was very mad when my ex threw a temper tantrum and left me alone on Christmas with his family, while he went home. I loved my ex a lot and when we first broke up I felt a lot of strong emotions: denial, sadness, failure and yes, some hate. After time those feelings of hate eventually softened and I no longer hate any of my exes. I just accept it for what it was&amp;amp;#8212;a life experience that helped shape me into a stronger, more mature person. When it ended and ultimately left me single, I was upset but all the wiser for the experience of the ride, and after some time excited for the next one, whenever that may be. Did you hate your ex after you broke up?? Do you think love precludes hate? Do you hate anyone you have never loved? Anyone else dumped via text message?
