Yeah, I was talking out of my ass. It is nice to be needed. I think it scares a lot of people though.
It's a hard line to walk, knowing when to reach out and when to just help yourself. Romantically, I suppose it's good to be needed. I mean, not to the point where you start saying "I'll kill myself if you leave!" or that shite, but just that you're a step up from being cared for and loved, that you play a more important part in someone's life. In friendships, yeah, that's difficult. My roommate is very needy, but not outwardly so.
