I think it is better to be loved because when things get bad and you have a lot of people who love rather then fear you, you will have more support. If you are loved you wont end up alone in the long run.

Being loved has more advantages rather than being feared. when you are loved, you have someone that cares for you and that cooks for you. However, being feared, you have no one to cook for you with out being forced too.

i think it would be better to be loved.If you are loved people will admire and respect you.if you are feared then people would give you a false sense of respect just because they are scared of you.If your loved then you would be comfortable around certain people,but if you were feared others would be nervous or shaky in your presence.When your loved more people care about your well being compared to if you were feared others wouldnt mind if you got knocked off...

I think that being loved is better then being feared, because when your loved, people like you. when your feared people someday might get the courage to stand up to you.

It is better to be loved than feared. If you arefeared, you will get the respect but it won't be proper. They will hate you since you use fear to get what you want in life

I think the best way to good is to be loved instead of being feared. If you are loved people will respect you and you can even have a friendship with the people. If people fear you they will not respect you. They will most likely try to stab you in the back because they are scared of you. So they will try to think of a way to take you out, because they will really see you as a ruler and controlling their lives. But if they love you they will respect you and everyone can live in peace and harmony.

I think it better to be loved bacause if people love you then they wont mind doing things for you. Yall would have that mutual relationship and respect for one another. And know that yall could count on each other.

It's better to be loved than feared.Why? Because love makes the world go round and round each and everyday. Being loved can keep some people happy but also it can cause hatred. It's always better to be loved than be feared by someone except for one person.(God)

Indeed, it is better to be loved than it is to be feared because everybody you know will have a bad relationship with you. Including your mom, dad, woman, brother, sister and so on.

Being Fear Is Better That Being Love. That Way People Wont Take You For Granted. Fear Equals Power.

I think its better to be feared then loved. If someone fears you they won't look at you like a regular person they will respect you.

I think that being feared is better than being loved, because if people fear you they will not necessarily respect you but they respect what you say and what you tell them.

i think it is better to be feared because when people fear you then they dont want to be against you. they will want to be on your side so then they will eventually start to love you as you become friends

In the eighteen years in my life, Ive always thought you are more respected if you are feared then loved. If you are feared people will show you respect because they are afraid of the consequences. I perfect example of this is in medieval times if someone where to question the king he would be put to death, but when the king was nice to his peasants he was looked upon as a person that could be walked on, so people didn't respect his authority as much.
