The story

i care for one of my friends greatly, and i really do love being friends with them, but i also feel a deep-rooted hatred toward them.

i've realized their actions toward me are negative, and i hate how ive been treated, but i still feel a close connection. this hatred with how ive been treated has turned into hatred for them in general, and i feel very guilty for it.

how can i get past this, or explain it to them, without sounding like a bad person?

it seems there is a substantial emotional conflict at play here... perhaps it would be helpful to take a step back and evaluate the root of these feelings? understanding whether it's their behavior or your perception that's fueling this hatred might offer clarity. discussing your feelings with them, in an honest yet respectful manner, could potentially bridge the gap!!!! acknowledging shared concerns and past incidents may pave the way for resolution without attributing guilt or blame, wouldn't you agree?
