Would you rather be ignored, pitied, hated or disrespected?

All those things are already happening to me.

None of them ideally, but, if I had a choice, probably ignored. I'd be free to follow my agenda with a minimum of people breathing down my neck.

Most of the time, I just want to be ignored. But I do have this desire to be well known and well liked - I want to be respected and listened to and admired - but it will probably never happen. I think being constantly ignored would at some point make me just want to be pitied - at least then I'd be getting some sort of attention, and not just looked at as a person who doesn't do anything special.

I say pitied. I'm already disrespected, hated and ignored. At least with pity maybe some people might try to be a little nicer. Though actually I don't like any of the 4 choices. I'm much rather be treated with kindness despite all my problems.

All four of those options kinda suck. Pity is by far the worst, and after years of hatred and disrespect in our wonderful school system, being ignored would at least be a relatively novel kind of misery.

I'd rather be ignored.

I don't mind being ignored. In some situations, I wish I was ignored more often so I could just enjoy my thoughts instead of having to talk to people.

Ignored would be my first choice, then hated.

NOT pitied. I HATE pity.

Pitied. At least I may get something good from someone out of pity.

Unfortunately, nobody pities me. They see me as too strong to be pitied. I used to be hated as a child and as a teenager. Then after all the therapy I did, I learnt how not to make people angry, so nowadays I'm ignored and disrespected.

I'd rather be ignored or hated. Pity just pisses me off, first of all. Disrespect doesn't as much, but it's still pretty annoying.

Ignored is fine, I'm kind of used to that anyway. I don't want to talk to most people anyhow.

Hate would make me smile with glee that they care that much that they would put so much energy into negative feelings for me. I'd feel rather special

Ignored works best for me, feared comes next.

They claim hate, but behind that is fear.

Life is good.

I would like to be ignored, because then at least I would have my space and peace.

The list of options (in order from what I would prefer from what I would not prefer):

1. Pitied.
2. Ignored.
3. Hated.
4. Disrespected.

I'm surprised a lot of people do not like to be pitied - but I do not want to be pitied for my autism/asperger's...

Ignored
Pitied
Hated
Disrespected

Which one would I chose?
I think that I would chose hated. Reason being that if I was being ignored, the reason would most likely be that I was hated anyway.
Atleast with being hated, i'll have my questions responded to.

I'd rather be hated from the 4 options
