It's better to be loved than feared because if you are loved by everyone then when ever you need a favor you'll always have someone who is willing to help you out. On the other hand if you are feared by everyone then you will probably be lonely with no friends and you'll have nobody when you need something because there wont be anyone that will want to be around you. Side: Loved
I would prefer to be loved because not only would people love you but they would respect you and believe in you. In most cases people think that the only way to be respected is to make people fear you but that's not true. Noone really likes to trust someone if they fear them. Even yet when someone fears you they don't speak to you because they are scared, so it's better to be loved than feared! Side: Loved

For me it is better for someone to be loved than to be feared. Being feared for me means that everyone would probably not like you and you'll feel alone. While on the other hand being loved can make you feel protected by ones that love you and you wont feel lonely. Side: Loved

Its better to be loved then feared. People who are feared feel like they have all the power in the world because they are feared by everyone. However, having everyone scared of you isn't such a great thing. Being loved means that you respect people and they respect you, not out of fear but out of trust and that is something I think everyone would perfer to have. Side: Loved

I thinks its better to be loved then feared. You don't want to be a person everybody its scared of, because when your feared everybody tries to stay away from you. When your loved you get attention everybody looks up to you, and you know that you always have somebody there for you whenever you need help. Side: Loved

It is probably better to be loved than feared; although if one knows how, they can intertwine both aspects with each other for self-advantage. If you are loved, it is easier for people to trust you; the more they trust you, the more they'll confide in you, which will eventually lead to exposure of their vulnerabilities. At this stage, you will know enough about them to know how to handle and, if necessary, manipulate them. You'll know what to expect from them so if that person thinks about betraying you, you'll be ready to deal with that person while ensuring your pride and prestige. Side: Loved

Love brings nothing but positivity, if you are truly loved than you are bonded with them, there tends to be unity and cohesiveness. If you are loved you are much better off than someone who is feared because fear tends to bring negativity such as resentment. If you fear someone there is no relationship or unity. Side: Loved

A lot of times, love doesn't last. The bond, unity, and cohesiveness are gone. When a strong relationship doesn't work out, the positive feelings become negative. There is either mutual hate and resentment or there is nothing left because basically you gave it your all and you still lost. So love doesn't bring other things besides positivity. Side: Feared

With love comes respect.I think that it is better to be loved then feared because being feared can also mean being in danger. If people fear you on the streets that could make them want to prove them self as a bigger person and kill you or something.And when you are loved everybody cares about you and makes you feel like a good person and makes you feel good about living. Side: Loved

In my opinion I would rather be loved than feared. Because by being loved people care about you, respect you and it makes you feel that you mean something for someone. Instead by being feared most likely the people around you only respect you because they’re scared and it’s just a fake feeling. Side: Loved

Actually, people who are loved also tend be envied by those who don't have the love that they want. Sometimes that envy becomes so strong that that person wants to have the source of their envy destroyed. At least, when you're feared, you're prepared to ensure your safety because you know there are people after, while if you are loved, that makes it more difficult to know who wants you dead.

Being feared does not necessarily means that you are respected. To respect somebody means to look up to them, to put them on a higher level than others. Most people don't look up to people they fear, if anything they hate them. When you are loved by everyone, you are also respected. If you are loved by everyone then the person you love will also love you back. Side: Loved
