Familiarity breeds contempt?

The old adage familiarity bridge contempt. I do not think that this statement is true. The person who coined this phrase must be an observer and not a participant. Familiarity do not breed contempt. I have seen familiarity breeds love. 

So where does the content come from. It is the act of one person in respond to another person. If a woman finds the reply from the man is totally acceptable to her, then this breeds love. The feeling of contempt comes about when the woman disagree totally with the man. In all that he says and what he does. 

Naturally this will end up in arguments and pointless debates.  When things get heated emotionally, it has a way of getting out of hand into areas of personal attack. 

When that happens you start to hate each other to the core. This is how contempt is bred. 

If you have another point of view, I would like to hear from you.

There is a mousetrap in the house!" The pig sympathized, but said, "I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers." The mouse turned to the cow and said, "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"           ...
