hater
A person who intensely rejects another person, a group, or a thing and is filled with strong hatred.
Er ist ein bekannter Hasser von lauter Musik und beschwert sich ständig.
He is a well-known hater of loud music and complains constantly.
'Hasser' (hater) is derived directly from the verb 'hassen' (to hate). The ending '-er' is added to the verb stem to refer to a male person who performs this action.
Wer andere Menschen hasst, ist ein Hasser.
Anyone who hates other people is a hater.
To say what someone hates, you often use the preposition 'von' followed by the dative. Alternatively, compound nouns are frequently formed.
Er ist ein Hasser von Ungerechtigkeit.
He is a hater of injustice.
In the context of social media and online discussions, 'Hasser' (hater) is often used for people who deliberately write negative or hateful comments. The term is very common in this context.

friend / boyfriend
'der Freund' and 'der Hasser' are clear opposites when it comes to someone's attitude toward a person or thing. A friend is close to someone or supports something. A hater strongly rejects a person, group, or thing and feels hatred. 'Freund' sounds positive and connected; 'Hasser' sounds very negative and strong. If you only want to say that someone does not like something, 'Hasser' is often too harsh. It fits better when the rejection is truly intense.
