Everything has context specific to our own experience.
The question itself had a context specific to your experience, regardless of its context to me. So the take away for you, for example, might be that in responding to the question of whether you can engage people without having some need being met, is looking at your relationship with people. Such as considering why you may want friends NOT to meet needs, for you.
Sometimes, when we ask questions, we get much needed insight by asking the question from a completely different context.
Hope you had a great Christmas and have an awesome 2013, as well!
