This might seem random but I've only kind of started looking back at DA, and even drawing. I realized that I actually still really hate some people who've hurt me and I haven't moved on.

And no, I don't mean anyone in the IZ community, some I knew more personally. How does someone get over being friends with someone for half of their life? Feeling just rather defeated and at a loss for the emotion I never dealt with.

Just sort of venting though... Of course the 'mature' thing is to forgive and move on... but can someone wrong you so much as to make you unable to forgive but also miss them terribly?

I agree with Puffy on this one. She's got the right idea.

I mean, once you're in your mid to late 20's it's impossible to not have had a bad run with a friendship. I haven't been unfortunate enough to hate someone long-term, even if they are no longer a friend anymore. I just remained neutral or something like that.  Even though I haven't experienced the same instance, I feel that it's normal to hate someone but miss them if it was a long-term friendship. 

So real talk here, after I found out a friend was fake or really shitty, I have mourned over it before when the friendship lasted several months. I did get over it, but I've only come to either be neutral or dislike them but not to the point of hating because hating gets a little obsessive. I noticed the first few months of dislodging from a bad friendship I'd check up on the other person's profile online, but after that I forget about them unless someone else brings them up.

I think it's a good idea to talk to a psychologist to deal with this kind of hate, because if it's really eating you up inside and preventing you from living life then I would say you would need to learn to cope with this hate. If it's not disrupting your life, then I think you're fine. I don't think it's immature to hate or not forgive if the magnitude of the former friend's actions were absolutely terrible, then yeah keep doing what you're doing.
