You need a car to do what? Most commonly, to transport your body from point A to point B. You can also consider other alternatives and pick one that (you think) works the best.<p>I doubt that there is such a thing as &quot;need to be in relationship&quot;, very often it is a cover for some other, deeper need, like &quot;need to not feel alone&quot;, &quot;need for social recognition&quot;, &quot;need to feel secure&quot; and so on. And unless that deeper need is realized and verbally communicated, there&#x27;s a high chance that it won&#x27;t be satisfied in the best possible way, if at all. Some of those needs even cannot be satisfied by another person (e.g. no one can cure your internal insecurities but yourself). It is your job, as a person, to work on realizing your actual needs. And once you do, you can ask another person to help you fulfill them.<p>Another important difference between cars and people is that people are sentient beings with their own will and their own needs. And when people see that someone is treating them as a tool to fulfill their needs, before even getting to know them better, they are likely to avoid engaging in such activity.
