with being loved?

No! I don't feel the need to be acknowledged... I am who I am and I can love without being loved, it has nothing to do with my own feelings or doesn't make me want for... Acceptance from others is their "own's". Therefore, I still am somehow not obliged or feel an obligation from others or from me, either way!

I equate the abovementioned with 'appreciation', not necessarily with being loved. The need, here refers to the hunger for love. Such a person can easily mistake it for love.
The love may or may not follow. The mere fact that you are being first acknowledged and then accepted for what you are, is the sign of their liking and appreciating what they get. From there things will take their own course--either forward or backward. Only time will tell. Sometimes we mess things up big time and spoil the party. The onus of any relationship lies on both sides actually......

Knowing that others accept you means that you can feel more comfortable with those people, and it is only one necessary condition for loving and being loved. If you haven't felt that for a long time, it can feel like a drought has ended and you might mistake all that good feeling with love. You don't really have to know people well to accept them and give them affirmation (acknowledgment and acceptance.) It can happen as you pass someone on a hiking trail in the wilderness. That glance of affirmative sunshine passes between you, and you never see each other again.

my love to give as well as to receive it has to be pure, geniune as well as unconditional. i feel that i would rather experience than receive because in most cases that is not what i am looking for, since the experience itself can teach one wonders.i do not need to have other's acceptance because who i am is me and they can either take it or leave it.to be accepted by others means to get their approval which does not work for me because in the end you as a person cannot make everyone happy except yourself when you wish to.experiencing is something that teaches and receiving is nice too yet it is more of a materialialistic idea in society yet when you learn you give back and you gain knowlege. knowlege is more powerful than anything and same with confidence and acceptance of who you are as a person.

Deep to this question is the "Philo" and the "Soph" in the word Philosophy... Yes? And a deep question it is, for here you use the supreme parent of all operatives -- Love.
Well, let us see.
Let us try this one to see if such follows, 'see if it carries:
Need to receive/experience [reciprocal?] 'plus' (acknowledgement 'plus' acceptance of others) = being loved
Or
Need to receive/experience [reciprocal?] 'plus' acknowledgement 'plus' acceptance of others = being loved
Well, in both instances, especially the first, there is the provision -- "if" -- in such assertion. 'That is, it is the "if-and-only-if" that leads one to inquire into all but without end.
Does it carry?
'Could be!? 'And it could not?!
Put anything to the Mind -- in itself --, and a loop results, and invariably 'that' and not love is what you are left with. Not even the word "loved" herewith can be taken to be a 'constant,' which import is considerably unsettling.

Sure it is part of being loved but there is danger for those wishing to be loved from groups that are by definition unable to love them. The loners cant be wasting time trying to be accepted by the players. They will never be apart of the group. It is much harder to be strong in the face of people not like yourself who wont be supportive. When the love is turned on you can be sure someone is ready to take advantage of you gullibility.

NO.. I dont agree with that..You either love me or hate me or leave me in the middle. I am loved but I dont expect someone else to share that feeling of love with me. Love is cultivated carefully. Being loved and in love are about the same. You have to know someone a while before you can experience that.

no actually for some strange reason im very independent and dont feel the need for positive attention from other. i actually find that when i do something good and ppl praise me i actually shy away and find it uncomfortable. i perfer to be a quite achiever. but i am on the other had a loud and colourful personality who love the attention of other and love to get a reaction from ppl. its rather strange i think

Love needs to be unconditional. No I would not equate it that way.
