is it better to be feared, or to be loved ?? ...

I am not sure, but a couple of friends are trying to convince me that in this day and age ... in most part it is better to be feared. Somewhere a long time ago, I did come across a quote of a famous person, where it was reflected strongly that it is better to be feared than to be loved. WHAT DO THINK ... FRIENDS??

the moment a woman stops fearing and admiring her man, she'll quit him!


uh oh
hi IOK, you have now opened a bigger can of worms as you introduced another wild element which is difficult to tame
love, fear and women ... it is a bit too much now to aim a logical comment without splitting our brain!
whitehorse, hiwave I did not want to comment your blog, because I had no opinion and better be quiet ... than comment for commentinggrin ... untill I read 10k comment wink ... 10k, if you use respect instead of fear... I will agree with youwine
i have to be honest with you 10K,it is not a good life for the man or the woman when fear is present or applied to keep a partner to stay ... and share the benefits of a special friendship or union.
HI ASWINA ... i do not bite, i am a gentle person and especially with the spoken word ... as i know words can also cause serious brusing
evth is better in combo
being feared and loved in the same time u can reach the top of emotionsroll eyes

PERSONALLY i can't see what fear is gonna do good for me, unless in business perhaps.

Love? well now we're talking!
Jippi! Love 4 me! Finally! heart wings

Whitehorse good fellow. Did u ask them what thay meant?
they know the score MG, everyone can create any event and answer. CS is on the wave and freedom to say and read is more than a natural high and good for the heart
MG ... what are you drinking today, i am sure it is not milk
hey wh,
sorry dear, i hvnt read ur middle comment.
no, of course its another sort of feeling that i meant.

Thanks for the blog. See u around horze! cheers
I watched a news article recently.

The king of Bhutan is making a pilgrimage to visit every one of his subjects - and he is the most loved monarch of any kingdom in the world.

I would rather be loved than feared. If you want to know why think of your parents and think of your children.
"It is not better to be feared, than loved?"

That's what the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland thought...or the knight wanted her to believe... laugh Didn't work out so well in the end. broken heart
I guess the best balanced is to be Loved with Respect to each other's boundaries. That's what I find healthy. Fearing the other is not.Fear is the opposite of Love.
love doesnt hurt fear does hurt.if u have to use fear to gain what u want then u wont really have what u want u will be controlling that person and not allowing that person to be him self or herself they will be underfear and that is like being in prison. i cant escape because of fear im trapped.but love overcomes fear and allows a person to be themselves and have freedom to express and free to be loved and respected and maybe adored
I am NOT afraid of any man.banana
