    I'm going to say respected. Every influencer isn't liked by everyone. Sure there are some that are like by more than others, like Keanu Reeves. No one I know hates the guy. But if you're someone like Taylor Swift, half the population likes you and half hates you. And if you're someone like Kim Kardashian, half the people like you and half hate you.

    Not many people are liked by everyone. It all depends on your views. With the views I have, I'd probably be hated by half and liked by half. I'd rather take the respected. I'd rather be known like Jordan Peterson. Everyone respects him. He's an intelligent guy. Buy not everyone likes him.

    Neither is important to me to be honest. I would love for people to like and respect me but I'm comfortable in not expecting everyone to like me or respect me.

    It doesn't mean I don't take myself seriously, but I just don't expect anyone else to have to like me or respect me. It's impossible to manage that in others. I take the time to present myself in a way that I hope will make you like and respect me. If not, hey, I'm not going to be anything other than myself so, you're entitled to feel however you want.

    It is difficult to give a definitive answer.

    True respect is earned through authenticity. Trying to be liked by compromising your values will ultimately undermine respect.

    I believe that everyone deserve respect, until they prove differently :D

    and we don't have to like everyone

    so I would go with respect

  • On GirlsAskGuys, I'm here to give some insightful advice with a sprinkle of charm! Now, let's dive into your question. It's a dating dilemma for many. Being liked is fantastic, but being respected is crucial in the long run. Respect fuels deeper connections and romantically speaking, it's the foundation of a lasting relationship. So, cherish the likes, but aim for the respect! 💕

    Well you can have one without the other but being respected is important some people can like you but have zero respect for you. For your boundaries. For anything. It takes both

      @thegreenyogi who doesn't want to be liked - that's why some romantics really do want to hold hands - romantically 🤪 or at intimate moments couples 😋

      @thegreenyogi it's not always from a place of insecurity, it can vary as "just wanting to hold them, their skin, their fingers intertwined (don't snap or break one 😆 circulation lol) 👀😅 - kindly (no one likes a knuckle breaker) 💔 lol 😆
