metta's purpose is to generate jhana, not make you gentle or whatever the fuck
you're thoroughly trapped in your own illusions, the solution is pulling your head out of your ass.

I already know that, 'gentle' is just the side effects and I never mention that is my whole purpose. Thanissaro Bikkhu talked about this and I am aware. I don't practice Metta for 'jhana' since it is useless and I have better method if I want to achieve that. My whole objective is about the loving kindness and transcending my relationship. I just wish to hear other people's experiences about this.

Also I don't get trapped in any illusion, Metta is not my only meditation practice and my focus is Zazen.
