People think the opposite of love is hate... It's not because in order to hate there must be some part which cares enough to hate. Hate is the antidote to love but not the opposite. The opposite to love is apathy.
If you agree with that line of thinking, what's the opposite of fear? It's not excitement, the body processes both this emotions very similarly.
I think the opposite of fear is boredom.
Something I'm going to think about more.
