About This Quote

Although you may not want to think so, everyone wants the love and admiration of others. It’s nothing to be embarrassed or ashamed about. The fact is, we all need to feel loved and appreciated. That’s why we have family, friends, and romantic relationships.

If you’re in a relationship with someone, you want to feel valued by that person. You want them to feel deeply connected to you in some way. If you’re friends with someone, you want that person to like you and be interested in spending time with you.

You also probably want the person to feel like they need you in some way. But you want them to feel like they can count on you when they need help or advice. When it comes down to it, every single one of us would like to be valued by others.
