In Pride and Prejudice, etc. two people who are hostile to each other are masking some kind of secret love. Does this happen in real life? My male friend and I are recently acquainted and clearly mutually attracted, but we have never really discussed this due to both of us having kind of messy personal situations. We make strange excuses to see each other, pretending there's some thing he/I need help with etc. We have recently begun bickering, and not about trivial things. It's more like a direct attack on each other's character. No really hurtful words are used, just "You seem to think everyone has something wrong with them," or "You're rude," things like that. We also seem to express irritation with each other frequently. I know this is not really media-worthy but it's weird because I don't usually hang out with people who insult me, and whom I insult, so early in the acquaintanceship. Is this normal repressed love-behaviour or just normal hostility?
