Want? Really? We want a solution to the fundamental problem of life, that is, doing something effective about feeling alone. Or, one step deeper, we seek security from the anxiety from our realization that alone we are vulnerable to the hostile forces of nature and society. Only four solutions have been found effective, love of spouse, love of God, membership in a group, and one more not recommended. Paraphrased from E. Fromm, 'The Art of Loving'. Simple enough. Bet the Amish do relatively well on the above.
