would u rather be feared? or respected?

I think I would rather be respected.Being feared is a part of being respected. If everybody treats you well and with high regards then maybe they will feel a sense of fear losing you

I'd rather be respected than feared. What do I gain by being feared in this world? Everyone would just walk away when they see me, noone to talk to. I would gain nothing. While in the other hand, If i am respected. Everyone would come to talk to me as they like me, noone would run away from me, I would have many friends.
