unlikeableness (uncountable)

  1. The quality of being unlikeable.
    • 1997, Diana Fritz Cates, Choosing to feel: virtue, friendship, and compassion for friends:
      To be "at home" in the presence of others is not necessarily to like them (nor is it necessarily to condone their characters or their actions), but it is to recognize them as beings who are like us even in their unlikeableness.
