Opposite of Love

[possibletarian]

hrm... After digesting some of the responses I see some similarities.

We have
A. those that see the opposite of one emotion being another emotion
B. those that feel any emotion is just a degree on a scale and the opposite is a null position
C. people like possibletarian that just sit on the fence and refuse to make any assertion. (no offense meant, I hope none taken)

How do A type people explain feeling multiple opposing emotions at the same time or towards the same thing?

No offence taken at all.

I don't think there has to be apposite when describing complex emotions, I think love is a well described emotion on it's own, I think of such things as either fitting the description or not. In other words i can lack love or not show any which, would mean emotions fitting some other description would be manifest, or maybe total indifference.

Let me use the number analogy a moment, I have £50 in my back account and i spend it and have nothing, the lack of money is not the opposite of £50, even if i say spend £100 and go overdrawn by £50, i still don't instinctively feel i have the opposite of £50 I in fact owe £50 or have £50 less than nothing.
