  1. Always wanting. Always wanting more. His life was never enough, even in the times he’d convinced himself he was complete, happy, content. He was never content. At times it was a curse. He felt alone, he felt depressed, he felt unsatisfied. At times it was a gift. He didn’t believe in perfection, only because that left him room for improvement.

  2. wanting is the act of desire. meaning that when you see, feel, smell, or hear something that is attractive in some way to you you will act in such a way that allows you to achieve possession of said thing. wanting could describe my feelings towards many things. love, happiness, intelligence. the funny thing is, you never really get what you want. only tiny pieces of it.

  3. I am so exciting about wanting a new house. This is what I have been dreaming about for the last two years. Wanting to own the house behind me, wanting to decorate the rooms, wanting to landscape the grounds, wanting to redecorate and redesign the rooms. Wanting to own something of my own.

  4. wanting. is a desire. completely void of any kind of thinking. Wanting is a disease on the human condition, a parasite we all live with but can’t help but live with out. I want to have more friends, i want to be happy, i want to have a cute cat to snuggle on my lap. I want to make amazing paintings and write thought provoking books. i want everything, that i don’t have.

  6. i want a boy. one, in particular. yes, a boy. not a man. he’s… the only one i’ve ever loved with that true, mad, deep KNOWING kind of love that you feel and see in movies and books. timeless, like romeo and juliet. but he’s a boy… so, i can’t be with him. i’ve grown up, he hasn’t. i’m bettering myself, he isn’t. so… it’s over.

  8. wanting is an instinct, not a feeling or something that can be explained easily. wanting is a humans soul. without wanting no one would be any thing.

  11. loss, it’s hard to know where she is or what she’s doing, i miss her, i miss us, so does our son, my son, the son, the one who’s left behind, who is left without, that empty space in the middle that nothing else fills, that nothing else heals, the same spot in my own soul

  12. i’ve been wantng you for so so long, and yet I can’t convince myself that you want me back. What do we want and what do we need? I want you, I want you so bad….

    Kiss me kate, want me, desire me, lust is wanting, desire is wanting, what do you want?

    What do we need?

    What do you want?

  13. Wanting is the desire to obtain something, It can be anything or anyone or any concept. It is quite a strange concept since it does not necesarily have anything to do with needing something. For instance you can want to have sex with a 7 foot black man but you don’t NEED to have sex with a 7 foot black man. You understand what i’m getting at? Cool concept brah.

  14. I suppose I can’t really say what I want. At my age want can mean a lot of things. What I want to do with my life, who I want to be with, what I wasnt to accomplish with the time given to me. Do I waste it on living for the moment or do I burden myself with goals and long term commitments?

  15. wow, wanting.. that’s something that i think everyone can understand. we all want something. i want something all the time.. whether it’s money.. a new life.. a new body.. a new boyfriend.. its always something. its pretty consuming.. want should be erased from everyone’s mind.. for their own well being.. don’t you think?

  16. the lust, the urge. I want it yet i can’t stand the mmedeocracy of it. how can i want this material thing, and yet be so into wearing invisible shoes and hair of matts? why can i want more? why can there be peace? isn’t love all you need? all you need is love. that is thae way. fuck wanting, it’s got nothing to do with it!

  17. As my eyes lost focus and I stared at the page in front of me, pretending to still be reading to disguise my epiphancy, it dawned on me what I have been wanting. I knew now what I needed for my happily ever after. And for the first time, that, itself, is what I actually wanted.

  18. i really want to be able to be a better person, and do the things i need to do instead of the things i want to do! i want to be the person i need to be for my husband to make him want to be a better person.

  22. i want to be loved. I want to be accepted and achieve bliss in this lifetime. I want to make all A’s and get acceptance from my father. He wants me to be smarter than everyone. I don’t really care about other people compared to me. I am my own person. He doesn’t understand.

  23. I want things. Things are an interesting thing to want. Wanting is normal for many human beings. It’s part of human nature. I like humans. THey’re pretty cool. Why am I doing this test? I don’t understand… seriously, why? this makes no sense. i only have a few seconds left. This better count… La la la la la I’m over time and I don’t care! La la la la la la la la

  24. all I have doesn’t come close to satisfying the needs of wanting. The more accumulation of objects only increases the wanting within

  25. Wanting, that’s a tough one. I want so many things, so many people, but I want to stop wanting, which is completely ridiculous. It’s not that I don’t want anything, It’s that I just hate the idea of being a person who wants things. Why, you ask? Who knows? Could be a feeling of inadiqucy, or something.

  26. left wanting. That’s kind of how I feel about high school – it’s like I had so much planned. Only I didn’t, really. I’m not sure what I was expecting – be it life-long friends or hobbies or the discovery of what I really love to do – but I know that I didn’t get it.

  27. My insides were liquid with it. This wanting; I had never felt such a thing. I had grown up with little, without realizing there was more to life than the farm and chores. Now I felt differently, and I wasn’t sure I liked this awareness.

  28. wanting..does it ever cease? is wanting ever satisfied. what do we want? temporal things..eternal things..what part of us is wanting..our souls..our bodies..our spirits..is wanting the same as hunger..

  29. wanting you so bad that I can hardly breathe
    wanting you bad that the aches never ease
    wanting to hear you call my name
    wanting you as my claim to fame
    that is what wanting you does to me!

  30. is like missing a piece of yourself. who can say what we’re after? fish swim for food and fish, giraffes reach for leaves, ants work for the colony. we feel like we need something perhaps to make ourselves survive. what do we really want? who can say? it’s moreso that we are what we are and want what we want and don’t have much of a say in it at all. humans are just animals wanting what they’re programmed to want, like a computer program that makes a key hit put a shape on the screen we’ve been programmed to do something adaptive for a larger purpose for no real benefit to ourselves, although part of the jig is that we may feel like we’re benefiting ourselves.

  31. when you want something so bad, it’s more than just a like, it’s a want. you cant blame yourself for wanting something, because it’s human nature. If we didn’t want, we wouldn’t have most of what we possess today. I thought I liked someone, but it turns out that it’s more than just an infatuation, it’s a want. More like a need. the two words are similar, but they’re different as well. A need is something you can’t live without, but a want is something you don’t want to live without.

  32. “wanting” so much to be devoured as he shoved his face full to the brim daily. poor uneaten man. in the end, aren’t we all tho? uneaten and gorging at once. I suppose time is a quiet friend in this respect, as he chews at us slowly, every moment.

  33. love is the most horrible thing in the world sometimes, it can make you want more things than is humanly possible.

  34. Want is desire. Desire consumes most thoughts of most people. We always want what we can’t have. I know I want someone I can’t have…but I guess that was his decision not mine.

  35. desire, wanting more, wanting peace, wanting health, wanting life, wanting…

  36. a desire to get more than what you have. but really is it bad to want something… is it bad to have a desire to earn, get etc? should we give in to all of our desires, or simply settle for what we have around us? do we create the world, or are we just stuck in it? i know my answer. what do you want yours to be, eh?

  37. i want myself and i want you. together again, torn assunder by the stupidity of human nature and the loving holiness of something that doesnt exist. i want you, but you’re so unattainable and i love you and i’m waiting and waiting and have been for so long that i’m numb.

    e.b.
  38. wanting. i am wanting you. i am not wanting you. all at the same time all of yours words echo through my head.
    i want an apple.
    i do not want you.
    but i do.

    i know not what i want.

    what is to want, when you can have. i would never want if i could have.
    if i could have you, i wouldn’t want you.
    but i would desire.

    rachel
  39. Yes, I am wanting. Very much wanting what I can’t have. I want him. He has gone back to his happily ever after, and where does that leave me? I know it’s insane and impossible to want the things I want, but right now I want the insane. I want the impossible. I want it all back the way it was. I want all of those crazy things he has ever said to me, all of the unbelievable offers he has ever made, all of those amazing feelings to be true and real and forever.
