Spiritually speaking, would you rather?

To quote a song "I'd rather be no one than someone with no one,I'd rather be no one than someone,with no one to love"

love and not be loved back

Matt 5:43-48

43"You have heard that it was said,'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48 You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect."

Loved and never love back.

Love and not be loved back. To not know what it is to love would be tragic. I believe love is a powerful emotion and just being loved does not allow you to experience it the way loving would. "Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" -From Alfred Lord Tennyson's poem In Memoriam

Be loved but never love.

Be loved but never love.

I would rather love and not be loved back.

Be loved but never love.

I would rather love and never be loved.

Be loved / never love

I agree with smile!

It is painful not to be loved, or even acknowledged, and when that happens, it is difficult to love others. If you are not shown love, how can you love? The second, and then the first.
