The way you want to be wanted
You want to be known for your mind, not just desired
You light up when someone actually wants to talk. Not small talk, but the real kind, where ideas get tossed around and neither person knows exactly where it's going. When someone engages you mentally, that's when you feel chosen. Attraction for you has always had a cognitive edge to it. You want to be interesting to someone, not just appealing.
The tricky part is that this need can make you restless in ways you don't always name clearly. You can be fully present in a relationship and still feel somehow unmet, because the conversation went surface or the person stopped being curious about you. You keep yourself interesting, partly out of genuine love for ideas, and partly because you've learned that staying interesting keeps people close.
What drives this is a deep sensitivity to being overlooked. Not rejected outright, but just, not quite seen. You learned early that your mind was one of your most reliable ways to matter to people. So you honed it. You stay witty, engaged, informed. The desire to be wanted and the desire to be understood have become so intertwined that sometimes you can't tell which one you're actually chasing.
Staying interesting can replace asking for what you need
You make people feel electric just by engaging them
