Do we (adult) humans, or maybe more specifically, do you as an adult...

Need love and affection?

I was reading something a few days ago that brought this question to mind. I haven't quite decided what my answer is, not yet anyway.

What say you? Care to add as few words as to why you think that way?

I think most humans do need that, as far as their overall well-being. If not physical affection, than just knowing someone does feel love and affection for them.
Humans in forced solitary conditions for very long often feel despair, and the littlest kindness or affection from someone is what keeps them from total loss of hope. Many non-human animals are the same.
