Everybody's want is different. Somebody who wants to travel around the world might seem lame to a computer gamer, while wanting to be a pro at owning newbies all day may not be appealing to somebody wanting to have a girlfriend or boyfriend, and wanting a loving relationship might be insignificant to someone wanting a million dollars. Nevertheless, wherever we are, whether it is in the bus looking out the window or at home looking at the ceiling, we picture the things we want in our minds.
But what about the times where we want something so bad, but we can't have. How does this make us feel?

I want a baby that I know I will never have. This want consumes my thoughts ever day of my life. I know it wont happen without a miracle (or winning the lottery)....so I try to keep the want to myself as to not bring anyone else down....
GREAT question!

This makes me feel weak, useless, unworthy,unloved..sometimes i mean allot of times i cant get things that i want...i want to have a 6 pack i train i run do situps crunches my stomach is pretty toned but i dont have a six pack so at this point i feel like i cant achieve it so dat leads me to feel weak useless and unworthy,When i was in the 8th grade i wanted this 1 guy i ever liked to like me back that was the joke of the day i asked him did he like me when i finnally found the confidence and soon as i found it it was lost again cause i was so rejected dat hurted more den anything when u want love so bad dat you cry at night you cant sleep u just feel unloved like its nobody there for you no one even notice that u exist. people use to call me shadow because i was so black i almost killed myself trying to get lighter i thought god hated me he was punishing me because year after year it was always somthing diffrent i still have to deal with these problems on a everyday basis so i cry allot i mean allot...but when u cant have what u want theres no limit to words on how u feel so many emotions so many memories and im still here thats how i deal with it knowing i can live another day it might be worse or better who knows only god...

I believe that at one point or another, we would want something that we can't have. This is inevitable. Some people make it work, while others just wait for the right opportunity to arise. And there are others that totally give up on what they really want.
We can want something good or something bad. I think if something that we want is good, we should not give up and go all out for it. But in certain circumstances like if we know that harping on someone else partner, that is definitely wrong and we can't have what we want there. Hope this helps.. ;)
