I think it depends a little on what people mean when they say "need." A lot of the time, what people mean when they say they need something is that they have a strong desire or preference for it, or that it's important enough to them that they'll only vivre or up under certain circumstances. For example, I "need" sex in a relationship, not in the sense that I'll die without it, but in the sense that it's important enough to me to be a deal breaker.

Right, but you can say you have "needs" in a relationship but that's not the same thing as saying "X is a human need". It's not even close. (I think you know this, just clarifying) Like I have lots of needs in a relationship, such as someone who's emotionally supportive, someone who is looking for a life partner, someone who is totally honest, etc. but those are just a completely different conceptual category from "humans need air, water, and food to survive". And people who say "humans need sex" are usually not talking about relationships either.

As for your approach, that's a totally sensible thing and it's the thing people should do, as far as approaches to relationships.
