    For the most part, just about every aspect of a relationship in terms of basic needs can be fulfilled by pretty much anyone you “click with”. Intimacy is the only thing that you can’t get except with a person
    of the opposite sex (sometimes same sex, if you are gay, but you get my meaning) and that you click with. I’m feeling a little jaded right now I guess, but exactly what do we need from a man or a woman in your life if not
    that one physical, basic need?

    People seek romantic relationships for intimacy, companionship, to be part of society and tradition and to have a family structure within which to have children. I’m sure there are other reasons, but those are what come to mind. I’m sorry you’re feeling jaded about relationships.

    Humans are very much social creatures. While not every single human was raised in a way where company is comforting, most people are, and therefore seek out other people to be with. The thing with humans is that even though we are animals, we are more than just animals, so satisfying the basic drive for sex is not going to cut it for most people. Humans are complex creatures with a higher intelligence and emotions, something that is not seen in many other animals. And from those emotions and intelligence we get other needs that have to be filled. Essentially, humans are a hive-minded creature and need others like themselves to be happy, to raise a family and continue the race. So even though, yes we all have a basic instinct for sex, whooptie doo, thats something every living creature that reproduces has, but since we have more than most other creatures, we need more. We have developed to a point where we need people with certain characteristics and personalities to be compatible with in order to get along with and live with.
