- Share your dislike for your enemy with good friends.
2. Competition: Enemies make great rivals as they bring out the competitor in you. Also, it's nice to watch them get mad at your victory!
3. Negative comments: All you get is criticism from your enemy. This may seem horrible, but at least they make you work harder.
4. Good gossip: Share your dislike for your enemy with good friends. Sharing your burden will bring your friends closer.
5. Potential friends: Go ahead and interact with your enemy. They're like an unknown territory that you need to explore once in a while.
6. Play dirty: What's better than playing a prank on your enemy? Since you're not offending anyone you love, it's justified!
7. Find greater meaning in life: Enemies help you realise that it's about time to focus on the positives in life.
8. Stay guilt free: Let the green monster of jealousy loose on your enemy without feeling bad about it. So show off! Make them jealous.
9. Value love: Constant interaction with your enemies teaches you to not take your loved ones for granted. Doesn't it?
10. Complete the picture: Want to know the other side of a story? Talk to your enemy.
