Would you rather be loved or feared?

Loved. Cause love makes you stronger and help growing yourself for better. But again you should be wise to choose and recieve the love which will build yourself up not the other wise. Spreading genuine love makes the world a better place ❤

Easy, both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me. - Michael Scott

I think I'd rather be loved. I don't want people to be scared of me, or afraid to come around me. I want people to come around me, and know they're welcome with open arms :)

We will definitely try to draw a parallel between these two strong "emotions." Being loved revolves around acceptance, truth, appreciation and every positive feelings existent; on the other hand resides fear, which mainly connotes a sense of fright entangled with a trail of other similar frequencies. Hence my answer resides upon neither of these two; because both sentiments are ever-existent and are co-existent through every moment in our life. Sometimes, the love frequency becomes dominant due to happiness or other optimistic incidents and sometimes, the fear elements gets the better when things go beyond our manipulation. We tend to keep fear at a minimum- I do it too- by seeking refuge into a better interpretation while trying to only appreciate, but am I running away from the truth? That's...the beauty of those two emotions. They co-exist and are unpredictable...almost like the microtubules in an electron, being two variables at the same time. The choice, is made by us and these two emotions have to be respected as they represent the personification of our actions. This is my opinion. So many people have amazing opinions upon this question and they never cease to amaze and nourish my understanding. :)

feared

I would prefer to be feared. If I was feared, I could get people to stay away from me, then they wouldn't get hurt and neither would I.

I would rather feel feared rather than love. In that sense, I wouldn't have the risk of hurting anybody or any body hurting me. If people left my life completely I would okay with that.

Isn't it weird that as human beings and creatures of interaction, we should wanna be loved but the times requires us to be feared? I personally prefer to be feared because that means that people wouldn't take advantage or mess with me.

I only want to be be loved :)

lol feared by ppl love by animals
