Fear will only let people see the worst in you. When you are feared, most of the time you have no friends, unless if they are pressured to be your friends, since they're scared of you. Also, being feared, others would be scared to stand up to you, that way, people would end up talking about you behind your back as opposed to your face. Being loved allows everyone to see all of the good aspects you have to offer in friendships and life all around. You would be able to conversate well with people, and people would want to know you. The only thing for being loved you would have to worry about is people stepping all over you, this is where boundaries come up in a person's lifestyle.

Better to be loved, why beacuse it feels good to be loved. You know that t theres someone who cares for you an has strong emotional feelings for you. An will most likely do what ever they can for you. . But being feared is a little good because no one aint gone bother you. They gone be scared if they speak it would probly be out of fear but hey who cares. The way i feel you running things.

Being loved is better than being feared. People might say being feared is better, because you get respect, but that is not the truth. Would you respect a teacher that you fear and are never comfortable around? Everyone will see all the actions you do when you love, and they will respect you.

I agree, people that I fear, I feel completely uncomfortable around and never want to be around them because of that fear.

When youre loved by someone you know they will wallways be there to help you, like your parents. No matter how bad you mess up your parents will never leave because they will allways love you. If youre feared the only thing that you will experiense is solitude.

Being loved is best because people will do things because they want to and show how they look to you as a good person. If they fear you then it doesn't show how good of a person you are, it just shows how you can intimidate people into doing stuff for you. I would much rather have people who are friends over people who are just scared of me.

Thats true if you're loved that shows a better person in you

I feel that its better to be loved because if your loved everyone wants to be around you and likes you. It would be a lonely life if everyone feared you because no one would want to be around you or near you because they were so scared of you. And people say that fear brings respect but if a person loves you then they will respect you. Being feared isnt a good feeling at all.

Love is something that I feel over power's being feared. Being loved give's people and engery in which they have a sence of happniess, freedom, and care. Which alot of people can't find in alot of other's. While people who are feared have to make people frightened just to be able to have some sort of control over them.

When you're loved you are never alone you always have people caring about you, worrying about you and when people have conversations about me nothing negative comes out of there mouths.

i think it is better to be loved because having people scared of you isn't a good feeling. When people are in love it feels great because, you know that someone truly has feelings for you and you know that its genuine. When people fear you it makes you feel crappy and like a bully...

I rather be loved than feared, because I dont think I could be feared anyway. plus people who are feared probly dont have any friends because no one wants to be around them.

Its better to be loved in my opinion, because of course when you are feared people tend to stay away from you more then when you are loved. When you are feared, you cant go to anyone because they will most likely not want to talk to you. People say that you get respect when you are feared, might be true but you get more respect when you are loved. People dont see the good in you when you are feared. And being feared can be a bad thing and a good thing. When you are feared you have few people you go to and when you are loved you have lots of people you can go to.

I will rather be loved then being feared because if you are feared by others than people won't want to talk to you or be around you because they will fear you. If you being love the you will have people that love you and care about you and will like to be around with you and be your friend then just being a person that fears you and you might feel bad if people fear you than loving you of who you are.

i think its better to be loved because people who fear you are not gonna want to talk to you or wiould try to avoid you alot. And seeing that would make you kindof feal bad, or confused.unless your a heartless person who doesnt care about other people's feelings.

but when you feel loved it makes you happy with yourself, and comfortable with the loved ones you can trust. makes you feel goooooood.

Being loved is the option because when someone loves you, you have no reason to fear anything because it gives you a sense of security causing you to develop self-confidence. Once you have self-confindence, nothing can stop you. Remember love conquers all things.

I want to be remembered as an out-going, nice, fun kid. When people talk about me I want to hear postitive things, and I want them to always remember me in a good spirit, and never be afraid to come to me for advice about any problemsthat they have. Being loved is a good thing, you gain respect from your peers because they see the positive nice side, not by putting fear in someone.

I believe that when you are feared people have somewhat of a respect for you and your personal space. When you are loved people just love being in your face and bothering you when you jus want to be left alone. Im not saying that being loved isnt a good thing, but too much of a good thing can soon turn bad.

But why would you want that? Being loved is the best thing in life. It not only opens you mind to the world's truths, but it opens you heart to new people who could benefit you in the future.

I agree when you say too much of a good thing can be bad because then you start picking out the negatives in people.

I thinks it's better to be feared then loved. Simply because if your feared you will recieve more power, and respect. Rather than loved where people take your kindness for weekness, and take you for granted. Although love is good too but fear last alot longer

It's better to be feared because that way people know not to mess with you, if your loved they mite care about you and have feelings for you but they won't do anything you tell them to do, and if your feared they will do anything you tell them to do because they're gonna be afraid that if they don't you mite hurt them, and you gain a lot of respect too.

ToNisha- It's better to be feared in my opinion because people will respect you more. Love is too kind. Fear is better! I rather my bf or my bff fear me then love me. And if you think about it, love brings fear to any kind of relationship (because they already love you, now they fear you!) but as i was saying, like if you really love them, you'll fear them because most times, you wouldnt want to loose them or what yall have, weather it's a good bf or bff.

If a person really loves you then they will respect you. If you make a person fear you too much then you might push them away
