Is it normal to copy traits from someone you dislike?

Is it normal for someone who claims to dislike you to use the phrases and sayings you say when talking to other people? I find it to be unoriginal and a bit contradictory though it doesn't bother me. But I was wondering if this behavior is normal.

Have you ever copied personal traits from someone you disliked?

  • Hatred due to jealousy is different from hatred due to disliking you.

    I have been a 'victim' of this, and it was pretty irritating. Ofcourse, they tended to fail at copying me, and so it was more laughable than anything.

    They're probably just jealous of the person they hate.

    What we hate in others is often what we hate most in ourselves.

  • How does not liking someone as a person prevent you from emulating the one or two traits you see as worthy?

    That's like refusing to go see Thor 2 because all the other films at the threatre suck.

    Either they're jealous or mocking you.

    I have no life so I post on this website and hate on people I disagree with. My mind is closed to so many things. You don't like someone whose words or actions go against what you believe? That statement makes me question your maturity. Stop with the arbitrary statements. Everybody in this world is stupid as fuck except me, and maybe Kate Nash. I hope someone rapes and kills you all because in my opinion it's morally right. I'm God so I'm always right. Have a nice day, go die. :D

        True. I've always liked character, even when the person is a heartless meanie who gets off on the suffering of others. Damn assholes, they have those eyes that hypnotize...shut the fuck up bird!!

        • The eyes are the gateway to the soul, you can tell what anyone is like by looking at their eyes.
