Is it normal to want love?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes, wanting love is completely normal. Most people want some kind of closeness, affection, or sense of being understood, even if they show it differently.
Wanting love is a very human thing—not needy, embarrassing, or proof that you can’t be happy on your own. Love can mean romance, but it can also mean feeling close to friends or family and knowing you matter to someone.
People vary in how much they want it and what kind of love they’re looking for. It’s fine to want a partner, and it’s also fine if love isn’t your main priority right now. You don’t have to pretend you don’t care just to seem independent.
