I'll grant that I'm not a totally regular poster here, and therefore might miss some of the nuances of the board, but I haven't gotten the general sense that people demand love from their Ts. Would some people like it? Sure. I count myself in that group. But at the same time, I think that what that desire represents is more important than the desire itself. For people who have had to disavow needs for closeness and connection throughout their lifetimes, getting a taste of caring, compassion, or perhaps love, can be dizzying, in good and bad ways.
