The true opposite of love is sadness, the feeling that arises in the absence of all that love delivers.

ROMOS - great answer - there are however - just saying - many forms of love some not even recognisable by others.

Approx 99% of aka members fit in the second category including yourself Dennis. (*~*)
country bumpkin - as hector5559 says How many people do fit into this category? Wonderfully idealistic - but difficult with human frailty, history and knowledge. So kind of you to think aka members fit into the second category and they most certainly make an excellent try at it and do a very good job.

Love is a powerful emotion. The lack of emotion would be the opposite. In my experience, the opposite of "love" is INDIFFERENCE. 
| 10 years ago. Rating: 6 | |
Bob/PKB - and so true - the indifference I am sounded by is amazing - uncaring, apathetic, lacking respect etc. The indifference though being towards others - certainly not themselves so prevalent - it seems to be maybe this comes with age - these days. Just as you say who cares anymore.
When one is the "victim" of indifference, it is very frustrating. The emotions of frustration can be destructive. Very effective counter-emo.
Bob/PKB - this can so engender so much emotional distress and do find this extremely frustating and how I know how destructive it has been for me these last years. Just find it difficult to understand as during my working years this indifference happened too but I found there to be a good counter balance. Where I live if you care too much the indifference in this house decrease makes you feel like if you care - you are crazy? if you understand me.
Bob/PKB - Also I find the person it is directed at can feel what am I doing wrongly whereas the person projecting the indifference is maybe unaware of it lacking sensitivity - I sometimes think this but sometimes I think they know this but it surely does not bother them.
Poppy3 - are you saying that you are projecting indifference towards someone you do NOT feel indifferent to, but are trying to throw him/her off the track, and that the person is being indifferent towards you? If that is what you're saying, there could be two things going on around here: (1) revere psychology (2) the person actually IS indifferent. Let me know?

Poppy3 you're not difficult. it's communication. & sometimes communications don't say precisely what want to say. it's fine. but poppy i do agree with you regarding 'some love and some hate' are learned. i feel people learn to love and hate based on their early environment experiences particularly experiences with their loving or hateful care givers.
tabber - this was bothering me - as I do not mean simple learning - if you do not have the innate teaching - you are left wanting. Not as simple as learning how to care for instance - it is there or it is not. Hope I have made myself clearer as I have always thought when I see uncaring that why this cannot be taught. You got precisely what I meant from your answer I CAN see this. This is in a way what I was eluding to with my remark to ROMOS.
