ummmm ... If I may be of assistance ..
I wouldnt do that if I were you.
The pattern I would rate as being medium effective however the way you are explaining the reason for using it I would say that it is going to backfire on you. If you have tried it on someone then I can well imagine you already know this.

Have you ever thought about the difference between dislike and hate? I think the difference is quite clear.
this is incorrect .. will work better like this
"If you have you ever thought about the difference between dislike and hate then you know the difference is quite clear."
because in your adapted version you are asking a question and then subsequentially answering your own question .. it requires no involvement of the target ... if you continue on
without her involvement then you are going alone. Better to make it an IF/THEN sequence where you have not asked a question but rather stated something resident in her mind .. to alter her state. See ?

When you dislike someone, its like you do your best to avoid that person or activity that causes you to begin to feel that feeling inside, because when you start to REALLY feel that-the worse your day goes.
This is ok language however if you take it out of context you can easily see where the backfire can occur .. especially if you haven't hooked her imagination yet and continued without her being in rapport. She could start thinking that way about you (and probably will) because anyone who posses a hypothetical question and then answers it themselves are usually put in the boring section with the window lickers right away.
I wont go any further because it's not my intention to beat you up .. I really like seeing people experiment with patterns and super encourage you to continue .. just be aware that when you get them firing on all pistons they have power that you dont want to lose control of ... I've done it and it's like a loose cannon rolling across the deck.
but hey .. have fun
