I don’t find it to be a stretch for someone in hell to realize their poor decision in rejecting God. Further, to hope others don’t make the same mistake.

Hell would be a place (or state) of constant misery.

One can’t be miserable without at least a slight understanding that there is a contra, or other thing, in the least - not miserable.

To hope that other Humans not in Hell do realize the importance of their time, in the nature God provides, doesn’t seem crazy.

Especially considering the Hell resident knows God’s love, but can’t do anything about it anymore.

So it seems the misery’s source is knowing full well of what from which, they chose to separate.

And that thing is the ultimate greatness, talk about misery.
 
O yea, love for money, love for sex etc. It is said that the way to hell is paved with good intentions…
 
Some of these replies assume that the absence of love necessitates the presence of hatred.
It need not be so, logically. I can easily not love someone, without specifically hating them. (I might have never met them.)

Those in hell don’t necessarily have to hate everything and everyone. They might just exist in a state of disappointment or even bemusement. After all, they would have died not knowing the moment of death, would have been functionally unconscious for an instant or so, and are now in a state they can’t understand – an eternal moment, as it seems to be suggested here. No future, no past, just a moment, a state of being.

Having rejected God’s love, the next best thing must be any kind of eternal moment. It’s still life, they just backed the wrong horse.
