I have a former classmate,Classmate A, we went to the same schools until high school,who was previously bullied repeatedly by some of our schoolmates back then. She really hated them, even cursed them. Time really flies and now, I just found out Classmate A is marrying one of those people who belittled her. That makes me think that anything can happen even the fiercest enemies can both dwell together. There must be some clashing and eventually meeting of minds in between those times.I wonder. People can change. Ever hated someone or something previously, that you learned to like or love now? Thanks for sharing in advance.

LOL! Sounds like both of them were punished by karma! ^__^ Although the story sounds cute to me... like those Manga stories where they first hated each other then falls madly in love in the end. Time cannot tell us what direction in life we are going to take. it is one of the greatest mysteries in life. So lessons learned here, don't judge anyone by who they are today... they might be someone who we can really adore tomorrow. ^__^

Good words you put into this. We cannot say really, we better not to say words sweepingly, who knows, that could be the opposite in the future. Thanks

maybe the one who bullied you friend whom classmate A married is really liking your friend at all. some people tend to show their love through belittling them because they are afraid what she might be ignoring her when he gets serious with her. i mean hes afraid she might throw him away. so, through bullying he can be get the attention of his love.

That's what I'm thinking also. You have an awesome talent seeing things as they happen. Thanks

What I did realize was that the hate I felt for the bullies needs to remain with the situation. I happened to have a conversation with a bully and he did not remember me but I did bring up the subject of bullies and he said that was just teasing and that the kids they did that to really liked the attention. This brought to my attention that in any situation there are many points of view. Reality check for me. But I still can't forget.

Hmmmm. Me personally, if I truly didn't like a person, it was for a good reason. And most likely that reason has never changed - ha ha! The only story I can think of that relates to this is my so-called childhood enemy. I think we were both the only Asian kids in school - but we hated each other (I don't remember why exactly - we just did). We used to call each other names and made fun of each other - all the way through junior high (which they call middle school now). Then in high school, I became friends with his friends . . . and somehow we became friends too. Not close, but we were civil . . . we even gave hugs to each other before school ended and that was WEIRD - ha ha. We are in contact now via Facebook . . . and we still joke how we used to hate each other as kids - but still we give each other a jab every now and then (see, some things never change) - hee hee!

People change really. Sometimes we need to treat people good even those who are not capable of getting along can be friendly someday. Thanks

That's destiny. Reminds me of my friends who ended up marrying each other in the end who from the start don't like each other. The girl keeps saying bad things about the guy while the guy is also doing the same thing to the girl. In short, they're worlds apart when it comes to their likings. But suddenly, they were a pair and the guy is even crying in front of us claiming how he loved the girl and would even marry her. So now they're a happy couple with kids.

I think this is really going to be a question of whether or not the couple will go the distance or not. Check back in 3 to 5 years and see if they're still married. There have been very few people that I've really hated, but once I've made the decision I've never gone back. There have been times where I've not talked to a friend for a couple of years because we had a difference of opinion on how friendship works, but we eventually made up once they corrected their behavior. I can tell you that I'm not close friends with any of the people bullying me when I was young, but we're linked on Facebook and got over the childhood injuries. Time heals all wounds I guess.

Time heals wounds really. Forgive and forget. But we only forget, never forgotten those things in life that made us strong. Thanks

That is a great love story you have in here. I guess human as we are we tend to be hard and strong during our younger years but eventually time has its own way to soften it and pave something unexpected along the way.

This just shows how things can really change. The things we hate for some reason actually could have many more reasons to love about. I remember not liking a food for it's look but after having a taste of it have learned to love eating it. As for a person, I don't recall ever knowing someone I dislike that much but I do remember my first day in high school, I had a seatmate I wanted to beat up the first time I met him. I don't know why I thought of it, it probably was just his aura or something about him that just got to me. It didn't happen though, and we actually turned out to be good friends all throughout that school year.

The more you hate the more you love, but i really don't believe in this one but it's applicable on you're former classmate's situation. To think of it, you're classmate A let go of the past, on what happened and start a new life with someone who she really hates before. Yes, people change. With the bad memories of your past you can build a better future with it.

I can't remember any such thing.When I hate something,i hate it for life.There is nothing in the world that can change my opinion about a person,or a thing that I dislike(i hope).uhmmm...I disliked watching Shin Chan shown on Hungama tv,I always scolded my sister,for watching that stupidly drawn crayon cartoon,but having seen It so many times,due to my stubborn sister,I think I have become a great fan of Shin chan.I can't whether i hated it before or not..it was more like I didn't care about it.So I don't know,if this comes under such things I hated before,and now love it. About your classmate A;the bully may have blackmailed her and she is forced to marry him,who knows???...its is a possibility:)i was just kidding..
