I did when I was younger, or thought I did. When all my girlfriends were getting together with someone, I felt I had to, even if I didnt really want to..doh

Now, however, its very different. Ive been single for a while now, and loved it. But I WANT the intimacy, both physically and emotionally that you get from finding the right guy..

Cant beat it.

Need - no
Want and desire - definately..

Good thread, Sommer..thumbs up

Good thread, Sommer..



I'm pleased you responded Petal, as I consider you to be a poster who I enjoy and certainly gain alot from your posts.

My limited introduction to this topic was for a purpose. To see how people would react.

When I ask 'need' I mean need, because the physical side, the emotional side are all needs, are they not?

I find that women do not want to be seen as 'needy'

I'm happy to admit that I need a partner to meet the physical and wmotional needs I have.

If I have a physical 'need' then I cannot change it to a 'want'

If I have an emotional 'need' from a person, tied in with lovemaking and need all of that, then I cannot change it to a want.

Do you see where I am going with this?

Oops, sorry, pressed the wrong button above!!doh

Yes, I do, Sommer..

I do have an emotional "need" to share, definately. I think its a natural urge to want to have a mate to share those feelings with, and I certainly dont consider a weakness or being "needy" in the general derogatory sense of the world. I admit, I love that feeling of "needing"; its lovely. Its lovely to feel that strongly about someone that you ache for them, and need them to be near you.

Neediness is often a word used wrongly; it can be a very positive, and empowering feeling. Desperation and neediness are two different things, arnt they?

A physical need is something you cant deny, and I dont want too!!

I don't need someone. But it would be nice to have someone's company. It's been my perception, though, that men seem to like 'needy' women. I guess it's just the carer & protector in men that feel they need to take care of someone. I'm strong-willed & independent. That seems to be a turn-off so often. dunno sigh

I enjoy my life style and my dog business. I get to go places, see things and meet people. I have done this by myself and with a female partner. It is a lot more fun to share my life with someone that can enjoy the things that I do. Yes I like a partner in pleasure and business. Most people are not able to share their work with their S/O I am a able to and enjoy that.

not all of us are like that Owen I really do not like "needy" people of any gender, I would rather someone be somewhat independent, but I must admit is nice to think someone "needs" me thoconversing

Sommerauer71: Do you need one?

Go....


NEED? No..... I am independent and self-sufficient enough. I have managed to do all the DIY-type jobs around the house and garden, can change a tyre and enjoy a certain amount of freedom. It would be nice, however, to share things with someone. Now that the weather is looking lovely, a walk along the coast and a picnic springs to mind.....

.....ROLL ON APRIL!!!! yay

I consider myself as half of something. It is complete when the other half is around. I love who I am and what I do in life. I have a good life. Life is better shared with someone you love. So do I need a partner -- yes?

It just seems that the ones who need help or taken care of are the ones that the guys run back to or go to in the first place.

I wouldn't let a man know I'm hurting even if I was desparate. It's just not my style. If I'm in a bind, I'll figure out some way to take care of it, myself. Besides, if I was to act needy, to me, that means weakness & that's just not me. dunno
