I am an LBS- my WAW was not needy at all, she was highly independant. Personally, I liked feeling needed, I even asked her at one point to be more needy- though I think I should have used a different word.
Highly independant women, may come across as cold and distant- at least that's my W's prob, before she was a WAW. That affected our intimacy and affection. It always seemed like she wasn't there.
Don't know if this helps. I did briefly go over 5LL's w/ W and it was interesting to see what her's were. I was WAY off. We wwere def speaking diff languages.
Best of luck
