Dual, ambivalent - is it a deviation or a natural property?
The world is multidimensional. The human personality is also not one -sided and not one-sided. But the fact that we have different motives, thoughts, motives, desires - this is not the whole complexity. Often a person experiences simultaneously opposite feelings. Ambivalent - this word just means "dual," "bidirectional." How can this be understood and explained?
Ambivalent - this does not mean "bad" or "doubtful," this word only indicates the complexity and bi-directional experience. It is not so rare to hear or read stories in which this very moment puzzles a person. First of all, one who has such feelings. For example, if a seriously ill close person dies, for many it is due not only to the bitter loss and loneliness, but also to a kind of ... relief.

Not always it is a question of mental deviations, perhaps, it is only the accentuation of character. That is, compared with the "average", such a person often experiences opposite feelings, enters intricate ties, can not decide on his position with respect to anyone or anything.
