I want my girl friend to have bigger breast. But do i need it.....no! To want some thing is some thing you don't need to live. To need something is something you need to live. Like my girl friend just the way she is!!!

Want is something that you desire. For instance, I want to go to the concert. I want to learn a new dance. Want--is not a necessity. Need is something that is necessary for survival. You need to eat. You need to drink water.
