neither of those alternatives apply to me. i love someone because they are who they are, and i like who they are.

"need" is not an ingredient involved in the matter. you present 2 opposing alternatives that are founded on the notion of "need". i need nothing but air and food and water and shelter. i did not vote.


You don't consider yourself to need social company?

Just wondering.


i guess not. but i do have love in my soul. i do not feel incomplete by remaining on my own.

there is a girl called tammy who is the repository of all my love, and she will eventually own all that i have. when i lose my life.

Then I understand your answer. The most important thing remains to love yourself.

Take good care my friend.
