Which is worse, a bad stomach ache or vomiting?

Bad stomach aches are the worst. Particularly when they're right above your pelvis and it just makes you double over. I can't stand that.

I'm sure vomitting is probably worse, but it has been so long since I've vomitted that I can't really accurately remember what it's like.
 
Definitely stomach aches are worse for me. They just last and last and it's a nagging, crampy pain, much worse than vomiting. Vomiting actually /relieves/ the pain you had before and to be honest, I kind of like it. Not like I enjoy it but it feels good somehow. Anyways that might be because I've pretty much grown up with it because I have motion sickness. It's not as bad as it used to be anymore, but I remember one time when I threw up about 27-30 times when going on a trip with my friend. And that was just on the way up haha.
 
I'd rather throw up, because I always feel better after that. Stomach aches can go on for such a long time :(
 
vomiting is worse. It's messy and horrible and most of the time it catches the back of my throat and it burns and feels so horrible I'd actually contemplate ripping my throat open. Stomach aches are just there, they don't do much. Just feel a bit sore.
 
Vomiting. For me it always goes into dry heaves, then it's into the bathroom every ten minutes, wrecking my vocal cords and getting a sore throat followed by curling up, shviering, in a fetal position and feeling pathatic.
 
Vomiting. It's disgusting and it just makes me so sick. :( *shudders* I'll take the stomachache. I've had plenty of those and I make it through just fine.
 
I'm actually afraid of throwing up, but I'd rather do that than have the stomachache. A few weeks ago, I had a really bad 24-hour virus that started out with a monster stomachache that was actually so painful I couldn't sleep that night. It only stopped when I finally threw up. So I'd rather take the throwing up if it can stop my stomach from hurting so much.
 
Stopped reading this thread after like 4 posts because it's gross.

But stomachaches and vomit don't go hand-in-hand for me; there's a certain kind of dizzy nausea, like I'm floating almost, that comes before vomiting. I prefer that, because once I do it I feel a million times better haha.
 
I haven't thrown up in forever, I can barely remember the last time, but depending on the situation sometimes that can be better than stomach pains. In general, I'd rather have the pains because chances are it could go away after a small amount of time, at the same time they can go hand-in-hand, and your stomach doesn't stop hurting until you manage to throw up. D:

But I mean.. girls naturally have uber pains at least once a month that can last all day if they're bad enough, and in that way I'm used to it. Where as I hate the idea of getting sick to my stomach. I'd rather not. xD;
 
A stomachache, most definitely. From experience, vomiting in and of itself is quite painful, and whatever leads up to it is not fun. It also leaves my throat preeeetty sore for a bit. Meanwhile whatever gives me the stomachache gets exactly what it deserves, digestion! >=)
 
well, umm, i've always hated vomiting. i mean, it's been quite some time since i last vomited, and i never want to relive that feeling again. so i suppose i'd really rather have a really bad stomach ache? i can usually get rid of those by taking a dump anyway; vomiting really is the worst for me.
 
Provided it's not too bad, I'd rather have a stomach ache than a vomit-session. They're inconvenient and last longer than a vomit-sesh, but the overall level of discomfort can be lower, from experience.
