Equal. You can't love w/o knowing how to be loved as you can't see it, you feel it. I know this is an either/or question, but this really an IDK question.

if you can't love then why should you be loved?

最好是都有。be loved太久会觉得欠别人的。单单love而不be loved，很没意义

better to be loved... but it is best to be loved and love in return... If you just love, you end up feeling drained and craving love... I will never be with someone I know doesnt love me, as I know I can never be with someone that I dont love. moral thing

To love. For the love you get is equal or greater to the love you give.

BOTH it has to be mutual, I do love being loved though :)

To be loved by the right person. Someone can love you but if it doesn't feel good it doesn't make you happy.

I don't want to choose but I tend to be better at being loved than doing the loving... not saying that is best though.

To be loved motivates you to love back.
