I don't Like You

Very seldom will a person have every one like him/her. There will surely be some one who dislikes you - openly or obliquely.

People like Mahadma Ghandi is well loved by millions yet he is killed by some one who don't like what he does. Other famous people like Abraham Lincoln, John Kennedy, Julius Caesar, Martin Luther King Jr, Malcolm X and many others are killed by people who don't like them.

There are several reason why people don't like a particular person. The reasons are surprisingly wide ranged. The following are just some of them which I know.

1. Biological reasons. Ever heard of love at first sight? Hate at first sight is just the opposite. Have you ever dislike a person by just the look? Blame it on the chemical reaction between two person.

2. Social reasons. Humans are social animals. We tends to group ourselves together. In grouping, we actually builds walls among ourselves thus creating dislike towards other groups. Racial conflicts are one very common issues of this kind.

3. Religious reasons. It is a very common source of conflict.

4. Idealogical reasons. Communism, Marxism, Capitalism etc. are common idealogies which alienates between people.

5. Political reason. It is a "you die I live" type existence between two opposing political groups.

6. Personal worship reasons. Strange it may sound. Many people are actually followers of others. If a person dislike another, their followers actually shows enimity towards that other person. 

7. Biased reason. Each person has their own biases. If another person shows a different bias then it caused conflict between the two.

8. Office politics reason. Everyone wants to climb to the top. In the process, many will be deliberately steps on others in order to climb. By doing so, it caused ill feelings among people.

9. Behavior reasons. Some people's action simply irritates others. Smokers, drunk, hippies, drug junkies, beggers are those commonly disliked person. Not surprisingly, sales men are also in this group.

10. Psyco reasons. When a person dislikes another, the former will always incite others to do the same towards the disliked person. The former will, rightly or wrongly, influence you towards disliking the person involved.

11. Love reasons. Strange? Actually it occurs everyday. Ever heard of love triangle? There are numerous news about some one being killed for such reasons of love.

12. Envy reasons. Rich and well to do peoples are always envied. There are people who can't stand others because of their well being. It might sound strange. What has my riches to do with you? However, it is not uncommon to see such thing happening. The reason is partly caused by these well to do people "showing off". The other reason is probably due to "I can't have it neither should you".

13. Wierd reasons. Ever heard of a person disliking himself/herself? You may not be familiar with the term "anorexia nervosa". In lay man term it is called "eating disorder". Famous people who suffers from such sickness include Karen Carpenter and Empress Elizabeth of Austria.

14. The ME reason. Never thought of that? Yes! It is you. You don't like things that does not work your way. Any one who don't agrees with you naturally becomes a person you dislike. Some even resort to eliminating oppositions by legal or illegal means. How many kings and queens, in olden days, does not behead people just because they offended the monarchy?

Whatever the reason, one must not resort to violence. We are not barbarians why resort to an act that is against the law?
