Continous tense

Hi

I've heard that sometimes to add a verb (that doesn't take -ing from) the sense of continuity, you can use "starting to". For example: "I'm starting to hate him.

Is there any rule like that?

I need a grammatical rule for all kind of those verbs to make them continue, like hate, dislike, love, want, etc.

Please post it to my e-mail:

Thanks a lot
