I realize your question was concerning not liking people in general, and we've kind of gotten off that. I guess I feel like I've learned that when you handle people in a certain way, and don't allow them to do the things that bother you so much, then you end up liking them more. Of course, there's always going to be the people you just don't like. Like I've written before about my friend's boyfriend and how I hate him. I've gone through the whole scenario of trying to like him, to no avail. I just don't like him – he's a jerk with arrogant, racist, hippocritical, self serving views. So yeah, there are some people you will just not get along with no matter what.

As far as disliking people as a whole, which I think is more what you were talking about, I think alot of people go through a period of that in their lives. I know I have. There's been times I've just wanted to yell at the top of my voice, "Why can't people just be normal!!" I don't think there's anything wrong with feeling like that as long as its not to the extent that you give up on the human race all together and go live like a hermit. Sometimes you just have to get away from all the people you've surrounded yourself with to get a better perspective. For instance, my last job was filled with people who were back stabbers, gossipers and liars. After being there for five years, it felt like the whole world was that way. Which in my world, it was. But I changed jobs and met new people who are so different, that I realize now how bogged down I was in the misery of the company of those people. So sometimes you just have to get out and meet new people to realize you don't really hate *everybody*, it just feels that way sometimes. I hope that made sense.
