Although people feeling sorry for me is not going to make me feel any better it might make them feel better than they would if they hated me ...hate is the worst force on earth.....the less of any the better...hate corrodes the vessel that carries it....so for them I will choose empathy....as a exceedingly more positive emotion than hatred ...

I can't handle anyone hating me for any reason. I'd rather take pity. Especially if it includes free hugs :D

G'day Gvp,

Thank you for your question.

Feel sorry for me as long as it is temporary.

Socrates said it the best.  I've been hated and pitied, neither is pleasant, but when people pity you they are nice to you and aren't mean to you like they are when they hate you.  If you hold your head up during a time you need pity, they tend to pity you less, and respect you more.

I'd rather have hate....then cause they hate me so bad, they'd start to feel sorry for me, cause they know I don't have friends. This way, I'll get both.

Very interesting plan you have. I suppose it depends why they started hating you to begin with somewhat. I don't think Bernie Madoff should expect that so quickly. But he is the scape goat/figure head of a much larger problem.
Thanks for the twisted logic Genew :)
I love it lol

I already have enough people hating me, it doesn't bother me at all. But I loathe people pitying me.

I would rather have a person hate me. It really would not bother me if a person hated me...they are probably just jealous and if they are not...then I guess I really don't need anything to do with them..just brush it off, there are so many people in the world that like me so one less person isn't so bad. I don't want people to feel sorry for me in any way at all. I am where I am because of my actions.

I will take pity over hate.  In most cases hate has a cause and if you are hated, you are the cause whether with good reason or not.  I would not like to think that I had done something so terrible that it caused anyone to hate me.  I could handle dislike or envy or about anything other than hate.  Hate is such a nasty, ugly emotion.
