After doing a lot of soul searching and lots of thinking, i have come to a conclusion. i sincerely believe that the biggest flaw in humans is their need to be loved.
It is this very need of humans that keep us unhappy, dissatisfied, discontent, hurt and miserable. We spend our whole life working towards achieving this love in one way or the other. Just think about it. Now i am talking about all the kinds of love here. Not just that between a man and a woman.
We study to get the love of parents and self. We work to get the love of our spouses and/or parents and self. we do the household chores to get the love of spouse and/or parents. We get a haircut to get the love of our boyfriend/girlfriend. Fundamentally nearly all our actions in life are centred towards getting love from someone and even ourselves.
All this doesn't mean that our need to love is simply a flaw. It is also what makes us humans. Unfortunately we don't realise just how much pain and misery we cause ourselves running after this love.
Anyways this is just my point of view.
Cheers

well i dont agree with this funda complletely... just to give you another perspective... we love others or feel the need to be loved because it makes us love ourselves... so its ultimately our own ego that we satify in the end think about it...
