I've been with a feared man before and it's very exciting.

But in the long run, I'd prefer him to be respected.
Respected.
Respected.
I honestly don't care either way; I feel like being with a feared guy would make me a bit nervy but being with a respected guy would make me feel inferior.
'respect' is too broad a descriptive. Could mean anything from a soldier to Gandalf.
Respected

Respected definitely.

Respected. As he'd know how to respect me, because if he is clearly respected by others it means he must have showed respect towards them. Whereas a feared man, may not know how to show respect to me...and people will not like to be around him- I don't like being anti-social.

So respected...
What kind of horrible man would he have to be to be feared?? I'd rather he be respected. Even if he wasn't horrible to me, he's still a dick

Its like asking what do you prefer chocolate or bread. Everyone knows the answer :smile:
Respected obviously.

And I have no respect for anyone who uses fear as a form of power. Its cowardice and ugly.
Respected (and for good reasons!) I don't find intimidating people very attractive at all.

So whats the answer?
Why can't we just have both?
Respected. Less chance of him being a total dickwad.
Respected.
Any man who relies on other people's fear for the sake of appearing powerful has security problems deep down, and instilling fear is a form of compensation. :tongue:

And if the feared man did show respect to you? Would the answer still be the same?
