It took me a week to ask my husband to drive me and I felt terribly guilty impossing on him. So I guess that is the best way for me to exain the differences between a want and a need. You would think a wife asking a husband something like that would be easy. For me it took a lot

But you don't strictly need that car drive, do you? You can wait in the car or on a park bench outside the dentist's office until the anesthesia wears off. It would just be terribly inconvenient. I'd consider it a want, because you don't want to go through all the trouble.
I'm glad you're in a position to consider inconvenience a reason to ask for help, though.
