Line Between Need and Hate It is often said there is a thin line between love and hate. I disagree. I say there is a thin line between need and hate. I learned this with someone I was in a relationship with. She was the daughter of an alcoholic and a broken home. She had been physically, sexually and emotionally abused. She used to profess her love for me, but when I didn't give her what she needed, she seemed to begin to hate me, or at least resent me. I don't think we resent people we love. I think we accept them, forgive them. So, yes, I think the thin line is between need and hate. S. Hein -- I wrote about this a little before on my page on romance..
