I'll take it a step farther and admit something that you may need to admit too; not only have I acted needy for a long time, I enjoy acting that way. It's a way for me to manipulate the situation so that even if she didn't feel like doing what I wanted, or having sex, giving me a hug, saying ILY, whatever, she would do it anyway out of pity...sad...wonder how long my wife has felt that way....
