Usually people speak of love at first sight. This I don't believe in so much. But hate at first sight? Recently there was a guy who showed up at my workplace. For a combination of reasons, I found myself really hating everything about him. The arrogant mannerisms, the proselytizing manner of speech, the rudeness and abruptness of the strange things he says, how he brags about his wife and kid (neither of whom are anything special). He is fairly unattractive, but probably doesn't know it. I'm not sure if he is being a dbag on purpose.
I am probably being a bit harsh but the nasty chemistry cannot be denied. I've tried to be friendly at first but so far it has backfired and made me hate him even more. We might have interacted for 20 minutes at most in 2 weeks but it is enough to permanently close the doors of interaction. It does not help that his face is devoid of expression (can't stand people like that).

Has this ever happened to anyone else?
Yep. I don't know if I could say I "hated" someone at first sight, but I've definitely known when someone and I were just not going to get along. Ever. And I'm pretty easy to get along with, so that's saying a lot!
I wouldn't call it "hate" at first sight, but there were several times when my twitchy little internal antennae told me to beware of certain people -- something about them seemed "off" to me or dangerous. And it turned out every time I was right; they were abusive, mean, angry, unethical, violent, etc. Far more bad than good in the mix. I'm not sure if that counts.
Hate is a pretty strong word. There are people I don't like, but I don't think I could really hate anyone at first sight. Oh, wait, I forgot about my ex wife.

It seems like there is one in every office. I hate moody people. People who are your best friends one day and won't even speak to you the next for no reason. WHere I worked last winter there was a gal like that there. Drove every body nuts. I couldn't stand her.
Not hate, but there are some people that I have never gotten along with. One co-worker in particular, I remember the first time I saw him he was eyeing me suspiciously, as if to say "you're my enemy until you prove otherwise".
Since then, the guy just doesn't even give me the time of day. He talks to others right in front of me as if I'm not there. He exudes a lack of respect for me.
We are cordial, but we just don't get along, and never have.
He's also got my biggest pet peeve, which is whispering. that's my pet peeve. I positively hate the sound of whispers, especially when accompanied by laughter.
I can't believe it that people would be so ignorant and stupid enough to
spill their hates to anyone else.
Watch out for those with elaphantine memories and meticulously recorded diaries!
They're gonna getcha one of these days! One of those days when you're trying to clear a smudge from your mirror that won't go away, won't go away!
You'd make Sigmund Freud's job too easy!
