Cultural Note
'Antipático' is the direct opposite of 'simpático' and is a common way to describe someone who is unfriendly or cold. In Spanish-speaking cultures, where warmth and friendliness are social expectations, being called 'antipático' is a notable criticism. The expression 'me cae mal' (I don't like them) is often used alongside or instead of directly calling someone antipático.
