When you are making progress in your life, aquire new and better things, say every month or so, or constantly moviing towards a specific goal (Enter the Hater), This individual goes out of his or her way to find a needle of negativity in a haystack of good. All in an attempt to dash your hopes and discourage you from going further. And almost in the same breath they talk about something they got or are going to do, and how sweet it's going to be, but never does it. All the while you keep making moves and making steady progress as the cycle of hate coming from this individual continues. Yet , you kill them with kindness because you are in an environment where you just can't up and take off on their ass and put the smash down. All the while you stay your course and keep the focus. Waiting for the right time and place. Until then, success is the best revenge! I can't stand a hater.
Also there is a difference in hate and someones opinion. e.g. I don't like 50 cent's flow. That does not make me hater, but a hardcore 50 fan would be quick to spit the word hater from his mouth. That's their opinion ,just as I have mine. So leave it be. But when someone gets to the point where they are being redundant about voicing their negative opinion ,that's when you start to cross the line and step into haterism. What's worse, they don't even realize they are haters. It's the norm for them, cause they been that way their entire lives.
