If you found out that your girlfriend/boyfriend didnt need you, would it bother you alot? Like, they wanted to be with you because they liked you, but they werent emotionally dependent on you... Would you feel unneeded?

No. In fact I'd probably prefer it that way. While it's somewhat nice to be needed, I'd also feel weird and uncomfortable about it. I'd rather us be mutual partners in the relationship.

Now, there's also emotional interdependence, but that's usually only something that develops over time, and rarely present at the start of a relationship unless you were either close friends already, or there was some special circumstance.

Oh hell no. I'd prefer it that they were not emotionally dependent on me. It sucks when they are.

Yeah, I think that's pretty normal. I wouldn't ever want complete dependence, but if he didn't have parts of him that truly needed me, and certain things he wont talk about with anyone else.. I would definitely feel unneeded, and I guess I need to feel needed.

rancid freakin rawk Posted at 3:56 pm on July 10, 2009
no. I'd be fine with that, to the point of almost prefering it.

I don't want a girlfried that is emotionally dependent on me, an dI don't want to be emotionally dependent on anyone. That's pretty silly to me.
