I recently learned that the correct definition of "ambivalent" is to have opposing or conflicting feelings at the same time, rather than not caring much either way (which is the only way I've ever heard people use it).
Now I am very curious whether this is a regional thing (I live in the Canadian prairies) or whether this is just one of the most misused words ever??
Please tell me how you and those around you use the word "ambivalent" and what region of the world you live in, so I can satisfy my curiosity!
