kbordson 8 #1 January 30, 2008 Is it needy to want to be with others? Not necessarily wanting to be the center of attention, but knowing someone else is there and finding comfort in the noises of others. Or is that a desire to be part of a community?

monkycndo 0 #2 January 30, 2008 Not needy at all. I grew up in a large family. When I first moved out on my own, it felt strange not having all that noise around. Now, I can take it or leave it.50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you are happy with yourself and even happier when hanging with other people and enjoying their company, it's not needy. If you need to be around others so you can get validation or try to not be lonely, that's not healthy. If you were to take comfort in being around me or Cocheese, that would just be plain fucked up!

Squeak 17 #4 January 30, 2008 i think it's needy if you want to be around others ALL the time and dont like spending any time alone. People should be able to spend time alone and not feel the need for others company, I think if you are uncomfartable alone then there might be things that need adressing, to find out why you are your own worst company. But that just how my head workOH and your POLL is scewed, yes Maslows heirachy of needs dictates that human contact is a NEED but that's not what you are refering to You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

Not necessarily wanting to be the center of attention, but knowing someone else is there and finding comfort in the noises of others. Or is that a desire to be part of a community? "Needy" seems to have a negative connotation in your question. I don't think it is needy to want to be with others. Rather, it is a real human need to want companionship and the company of other people. If, however, you can't stand to be alone ever, then I would think there is a problem. Never wanting the company of others would be the other side of that coin and isn't particularly desirable either. I think for the most part, we need a balance of soitude and company to thrive."safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!!
