To "be loved" is great, but I don't think you can truly understand that person's feelings unless you have actually "loved" someone yourself. So, I would say it's best to "love".

To love and to be loved are completely different. To love is to love another and care about them and it is harder to give and express love. To be loved is easier because somebody loves and takes care of you out of concern for you. The difference is that the two do not necessary appear together which causes major problems. If you love someone and they do not love you back then you "love" but are not "being loved" back.

"Love" is best. Life is about "what comes around goes around", so when you love yourself and treat yourself with love, then you are able to do the same for others. As a result, others will treat you similarly and you will be loved the way you want to be loved.

to "love" is the best. Number one, that is the one of the two that you can control. Number two, loving someone teaches you more about yourself than you might realize. Number three, from an exestential point of view it's just "great".

how bout neither? if I love him and he doesn't love me, it hurts. if he loves me and I don't love him, I feel guilty for hurting him.
