As far as I know, The Smiths version was the original. But I agree, the Love Split Love version is better. It's actually the one I was thinking of, but I just grabbed the first video I could find.

Hmm, crap, I think you're right. I must've gotten the two mixed up somehow. I guess the Smith's version is much more attuned to instruments, while Love Spit Love did much better in the vocals...guess I just figured the older type was more prone to singing, rather than just slamming a guitar. (God though, I love the instrumental parts of the Smiths in that song.)

It was in the Movie 'less than 0', if'n I remember it. I like the song a lot...;)

However, back to your needs. While it's human to need love and affection, if it's too much or too apparent, you may attract people who like being mothered, or are looking for a free ride. Just make sure you're getting some love back...

Also, you should check and see if you're comfortable together. Lots of guys get into a 'ok, I behaved for the relationship, now I can go back to being me'...;)

good luck.

What's so wrong with a desperate need to be loved? Can anyone be content, in their own little world, with only their self to accompany them? Of course not, anyone who says otherwise is lying or living in their own dream world in which someone does accompany them.

I'm a selfish person, I guess I can admit. But it's only to those I don't care about...at the very core of my being, I want nothing else but to find someone to understand and love me, so that I can do everything I can for them.

It's my only goal in life, to be loved. I don't care about jobs, status, material possessions or whatnot...I just want someone to be by my side. I'm so tired of being alone, so awfully alone...it doesn't seem to matter who I talk to or what side of myself I seem to portray anymore. I can't stand it, and so I can't move on.

I'll continue hating myself for my faults, and others for shunning me for them. I need to forgive myself for my mistakes, but I don't feel I'm strong enough by myself. I don't want to be alone anymore.

Wow, I never thought I would be reading about myself here

I need someone to rely on me romantically. I had that once. Now that is lost... my soul along with it... and these days I feel like an empty shell. Matters that were excruciatingly painful or important before, become trivial. The sharpness of pleasure has faded. I'm a hedonist now, craving that spark of life. Yet I know my stay in Hell is eternal. There will be no satisfaction.

Guess that's part of being a man. Love was a childhood of the mind. Now there's no going back to it.
