Is finding a mate a need or a want?

depends on the person.

If its a need then I believe it is not a good thing.

You should be happy with your life and who you are before you bring someone else into it.

I need to be wanted.....

You and I think a lot alike.
 
It's a want.. some people do need someone in their life though
 
If you're talking about Socks, I say its a need because
nobody wants to wear unmated socks.

thats just wrong
 
Need are 'highly overrated'
Wants are 'highly overrated'
Mates are 'highly overrated'

Lets Cuddle :qt:
 
I want you to want me.
I need you to need me.
I love you to love me.
I beg you to beg me.


Great. Now I can't get it out of my head.



It's a want that can border on a need. Will I die if I don't have a mate? No. Do I think my life could be better with one? Yes. Will it really be better with one? Not necessarily, but it wouldn't be boring ;)
 
Lets look at the benefits.

Many say people that are married or have lifelong partners live longer. That would warrant a need in a way.

I agree. It's nice to have someone to share your life with and experience things with.

This is one of the reasons I have avoided relationships the last few yrs. Most girls I went out with needed someone. But, I will wait for someone who wants to be with me.

I read this at work and have been singing it to myself all day now thanks A LOT! :mix:
 
I need to practice mating.
 
I dont know, noone wants to grow old alone(well except Ulcasterdropout) and for that you need a mate for that, You WANT someone to share your lfe with, watch your children and grandchildren grow up.....i dont know, i think its a little of both

for me personally, i wont die without one...

but I wont be completely happy without one...

so i dunno, I'd say a need, just not a survival need.
but then again needs and wants are all kinda the same.

That's not true. :finger:
I'm not planning on growing old...I won't unless my mailbox is being watched.

I think at one time, it was a need. Now, it's a want. Someday the idea of love will be dead. Don't bother debating it cuz it's already begone.
Skyrocketing divorce rates, later in life marriages, a upshift of people who never marry at all, undoing of gender roles, 1st world reproduction drops per person, less free time cuz of work and school, generations of absent parented children raised by grandmothers or couch potato babysitters...or the judicial system :worried:

Humans have grown so strong as a species and as a system, that the only threat to his continual existence, is itself.
 
Whenever I've been happily single and 100% opposed to being seriously involved has been when I've met someone I've been with long term.

I think want vs need totally depends on the person. I think everyone wants someone they really connect with though.
 
It's a chore

Werd!!!!!
 
I think it's mostly a want, but a need for some. Personal freedom or companionship? You can't have both. I'd settly for a friend with benefits, but that is very hard to find.

.

lol, its ironic how that works isnt it.

I wonder if this would work for me, if I swore off women maybe I'd meet someone? Meh probably not. I bet it worked for you because you're attractive, that and probably coincidence.

WISE WORDS
I share your View and that is why i too have remained single,
I see sooo many people who go through relationships every couple of months
never building anything worth while,
I choose NOT to be that person, one thing i have learnt is Patience is a virtue
 
I was thinking about this more and think that people who think a relationship is a need usually expect the other person to have the job of making them happy. That's a lot of responsibility to throw on another person. The best relationships I've had started out with me being happy with myself.

I think we all know people too who NEED to be in a relationship (they view it that way) and end up in unhealthy relationships. I'd rather be single than with someone who didn't treat me right. Relationships for the sake of relationships are sad.
 
It's a want in humans because we don't produce high levels of neurochemicals that lead to pair bonding. In some species the level is so huge that is is a vital need comparable to breathing or food.
