Because 1, 1 has the opposite of -1 and the in between is zero so there is nothing for zero to be opposite to except 2, itself. If you were to actually look at the shape of 0 on a computer or phone you would notice that it is symmetrical so the opposite to one side is the other. One half is on the negative side of numbers while one half is on the positive.
