Another view:

Hate is a strong emotion, but often a misunderstood one, too. In most cases, in order to hate someone you first have to care enough about them or their actions to even be able to hate. It goes back to that old adage, "There is a fine line between love and hate", which is quite often true.

For example: You find out your boyfriend has been cheating on you with your best friend. You loved your boyfriend and your best friend, yet they betrayed you in the worst possible way. First you feel incredible hurt, but since anger is easier to deal with than hurt, you turn it into anger. That anger then turns into hate towards your ex boyfriend and your (now ex) best friend. But had you not loved your boyfriend and your best friend, it wouldn't hurt as much would it? No. But you did love them, which is an emotion you can't just flip a switch to turn off. So what do you do? You turn that hurt into anger, then into hate.

But, is it really hate, or is it hurt turned into anger turned in hate? In order for you to answer your own question, you first have to ask yourself if it really is hate or is it hurt turned into an emotion you can cope with better than you can cope with hurt.

You may hate someone if you feel intense anger, resentment, and hostility towards them. You might also avoid them and feel no empathy or compassion for their well-being. These strong negative emotions are indicators of hatred towards someone.

What happens when a girl asked you if you hate them or not and you said maybe and she says that she doesn't like you what does it mean?

It likely means that the girl is upset or disappointed by your response. Saying "maybe" to whether you hate someone can imply uncertainty or lack of clarity, which may have caused her to feel uneasy. Her statement that she doesn't like you could be a reaction to feeling hurt or misunderstood. Communication and clarification could help address this misunderstanding.
