Ever been friends with people who were once enemies? Like for one reason or the other, you guys suddenly become close, and from there, friendship is generated unconsciously?
In my case, yes. I have become friends with people who were once enemies or should I say, haters.
The truth is, most times people just dislike or hate the other person just for no good reason at all.
I have been in that shoes before, I have been hated and disliked by someone without even knowing, and for what I had no idea of or about. Imagine disliking someone without even knowing the reason for the dislike or the cause of the hatred?
Like how do people just nurture hatred within themselves and are comfortable and happy living such a life?
A friend of mine confessed one day how much she hated and disliked me. According to her, I did nothing bad to her. She just disliked me saying that I usually act as if I know it all. Funnily, I don't think I was one-tenth of what she described me to be. I wasn't the proud and pompous type for all I know. I never pretended to know it all, however, it so displeased her and she hated me for such lame reason which wasn't even true.
But when she later got closer to me, she realized I wasn't really the way she judged me to be from afar.
I was just another regular girl, doing her best to be among the best, nothing extraordinary.
If you have been disliked or hated by someone, do not blame them too much, maybe, just maybe they are seeing the wrong picture of you. Maybe they have been wrongly misled too.
No one can tell which or what is true or how a person truly is until they get closer to the person.
Distance judgment is never the best, it doesn't give a good result.
So when next you find your haters or people you feel are enemies, try to win them over, and their story about you will or may likely change.
Now tell me guys, have you ever experienced this? Do you have a friend now who was once your enemy or hater? Share your ordeal.
Tell us all about it, we would love to hear about your experience as well.

I've also had enemies who are now my friends. They realized their wrongdoings and explained that they were only influenced by the bad people around them. I think that we should learn to accept others and forgive their bad habits in the pursuit of trying to help them and having a genuine connection.
