Okay. So, it's like this. I have my opinions of people and once those are formed, unless they make some sort of drastic change (highly unlikely), my opinions don't change. There are certain people that before I ever really get to know them, they just give me a bad feeling. Those people usually end up proving that bad feeling to be accurate. Me not liking someone does not mean that I can not spend time with them. Granted, I would rather not but in the interest of saving drama, I can. Contrary to popular belief, I am a very tolerant person. Besides, I'm also good at finding at least one good quality in everyone. If I prefer not to be around that person, I can find that one (or more) good quality and focus on that while turning my attentions away from their not so good quality(ies). So why in the fucking world do I have to get lashed out at or reprimanded for not liking someone and making that known? Do you really like every single person you see through out your life? The answer to that is NO! And if you do, you are lying - to yourself and/or others. Differences of opinions are what make this world interesting. They make things passionate and origional. If we didn't have differences of opinions, or if we liked everyone we would be living in an entirely different world. I think you all have read The Giver and I don't know about you but I don't want to live in a world like that.
At the risk of sounding like a bumper sticker, life happens. Get the fuck over it! You not being understanding or being angry or uncompromisable is not going to change that. It's only going to make things more difficult for you, me and everyone else.
Thank you. Have a nice day.

P.S. Just because you like someone or that someone has never done anything to slight you, doesn't mean that everyone likes them. It certainly doesn't mean that if someone is bitching about them that that person is in the wrong. You may not agree - that doesn't make it wrong.
argh,
