I'd rather feel wanted than feel needed.

Being needed, to me, implies clinginess. Dependence. Obsession. You know, that whole "I can't live without you!" crap. I don't like it when people around can't stand not having a significant other. I don't absolutely need to be around people. It's nice to be around other people; I enjoy it; it's pleasant; but I don't have an obsessive need to surround myself with other people. It bothers me.

Being wanted, on the other hand, implies friendliness. Independence. The other person can live without you, but really wants to be around you anyway. That person could enjoy alone-time, but still want to be around people sometimes. Few people usually want me hanging around. Taylor and Andy, yeah. Or Hannah. And that's online! I guess there's no place for a Goddamn Hippie in a military town. XP No place where she could feel wanted, at any rate.
