Love, hate, anger and forgiveness

​Is it possible to forgive someone but not like them?
Can you forgive someone and still be angry with them?
Can you hate someone and still love them?

​
I will define the terms and thus provide an answer.
  1. Anger is an emotion that motivates us to confront.
  2. Hate in a state with the intention to harm, do evil, and get revenge. As in, you hurt me so I am holding on to my right to get you back. Tit for tat.
  3. Love has the intention to do good and wish the best for another. One may be angry with someone you love but not intend them harm.
  4. Forgiveness is the decision to let go of the intention to get revenge or hurt someone back.

Therefore: One may forgive someone and still be angry with them, not trust them or not like them.

In general one cannot hate someone and also love them with one exception. The exception is if there is an evil spirit attacking you through a person and, in this case, you may have a hatred toward the evil power that is attacking you and still care for the person himself or herself.

    It was like I lived in a fog when I was young. That is how weak my sense of self was. A strong inner force worked below the surface. It tried to connect with God for the love and life I so much needed. See:
