chromosphere, GEL The way I see this is "being needed" can be like going to a job every day that you don't like that much, but need the money.

OTH "being wanted" is like being rich but going to a job because you like the work, people, what ever. It's something like winning the lottery (I neve play) and keeping your job.

There are third and forth condition.
3. I need you and I want you, that's a very strong position.
4. And I don't need and don't want you, that is very weak position for people to stay married.
