It could be that you as a woman feel the need to fill up the void of loneliness or desire companionship, amongst others, would make a woman feel that only a man could do that.
It’s important to note that being in need of a man might be born out of the wrong reasons or the right reasons depending on the mindset of the particular lady/ woman.
Here are a list of reasons that could make you feel that a man is needed in your life.
10 Reasons Why You Feel Like You Need a Man
- Loneliness creates a sense of need for a man to fill the void.
- You have it all and you need someone to share it with.
- To bear children of your own, without a man that’s not possible.
- To play the role of the ‘Responsible Woman’ to society.
- Perhaps you desire to lean on your feminine side, only a man can make that completely manifest.

- Perhaps you have a high urge, a man is needed to satisfy that.
- Only a man can be a father figure to your children.
Loneliness creates a sense of need for a man to fill the void.
When you’re lonely, thoughts that you need a man could pop up in your mind constantly.
Loneliness could have you thinking that you have no one to love and shower you with the attention you so badly want which could build a strong desire for a man.
Although a person could have a lot of people in their life and still feel lonely so it’s not dependent on the fact you don’t have loved ones, it could be an issue of the mind.
It could be that you feel lonely because you’re isolated or have no friends that could make you feel less lonely.
Of course, every human feels lonely at some point and the natural remedy to loneliness is getting a companion, in your case, it could be a man, so all you have to do is keep your eye out for good men that possess qualities that you feel you need in your life.
- Don’t be so desperate to settle for less, watch to pick the right guy.
- The right man wouldn’t make you feel lonely but the wrong man could.
You have it all and you need someone to share it with.
If you are the type that has worked really hard to achieve all that you need to have a comfortable life then chances are that you are in need of a man, because you need someone that would share in your success.
You could be the type that isn’t in need of a man financially but just for emotional needs then that’s one indicator that you’re in need of a man.
A man would be the right fit for a woman to get a special connection with which could ultimately make her feel she has everything in the world.
Although you’re successful and need someone to share it with, you have to be careful with some men in the world because they could destroy what you’ve ever worked for in a blink of an eye.
To bear children of your own, without a man, that’s not possible.
To bear a child, it takes sperm, produced by a man and a woman’s egg to do so.
This is why it’s safe to say that you as a lady/woman could be in need of a man. Having a man would mean that you can become pregnant after engaging in intercourse with them.
You don’t have to wait and hope, because getting a man would make that wish be granted quickly.
You might have the desire to have children that you could call yours and you want them biologically, then needing a man could be the result of this desire of yours.
There are many women that are fine being single mothers and desire a man only for the sole purpose of getting them pregnant.
In this day and age, you could see why this is a reason for any lady or woman to develop the feeling of needing a man. It’s all always for emotional needs but for procreation.
To play the role of the ‘Responsible Woman’ to society.
The stereotype around being a ‘responsible woman’ is that you have to have a man to be happy and to be conceived as a person of virtue which isn’t true.
You can be happy and single even without a man, this doesn’t make you irresponsible. If you constantly feel the need to have a man because of this reason then your mindset perhaps needs a shift in its perspective.
Your life isn’t running based on someone else’s clock because you have your own life to live.
Society wants you to paint a picture of yourself in a way that it suits them to see but you’re your own artist and you can decide to paint your life however you like it.
Ways that you can eradicate this belief from your mindset is by putting some certain things in place;
- Get rid of people who also have this mindset around you.
- Learn to be happy with yourself.
Perhaps you desire to lean on your feminine side, only a man can make that completely manifest.
Sometimes a woman takes on masculine traits as a means of survival, she becomes more aggressive, feels a need to defend herself from everything which could be as a result of the situation and not by choice.
Now you’re in need of a man because you want to be in touch with your feminine side, you want to feel protected and pampered rather than being the one who has to offer that.
A man has the ability to make a woman feel feminine again and that could be one reason why you feel you’re in need of a man.
It’s not wrong to feel like you need a man but choosing the right man is the only way that you could be in touch with your feminine side so you have to be thorough in your selection process.
My friends all have a man and I don’t, how do I fit into this circle?
Peer pressure is another major reason that you could be feeling that you need a man. It’s not ‘cool’ if all your friends have a man and you don’t, so you begin to build an unhealthy desire for a man.
A man is what you need to be able to prove to your friends that you’re just as great as they are or to feel part of the clique.
This reason is a wrong one and shouldn’t be why you need a man. You should desire a man because you are a good one who deserves a good man, because you will be a blessing to any man that comes into your life.
If your friends think less of you because you don’t have a man of your own then they aren’t true friends, get rid of them so you could foster a healthy reason to need a man.
For social media clout; I can post cute pictures of me and my man on a trip in Maldives.
Are you the type to show off to the world all the glamorous things you have and how your life is so perfect on social media?
Well, the reason you might be in need of a man is that just like you show off your possessions, you also want to show off your man.
It’s almost like a trend on social media where couples flaunt how in love they are with each other even though behind closed doors the story might be different.
You also want to add to the picture of you and your man, a caption, the famous #couplegoals. As much as this sounds ridiculous, it’s one of the reasons why you could be feeling that you need a man all of a sudden.
You feel like you’re running out of time because age is no longer by your side.
The age factor is a common reason that could also be making you feel like you need a man. You feel like the invisible clock of age is ticking fast on you and you have to get a man to get it to stop.
I don’t know about you, but I am a big fan of the phrase, ‘age is just a number’ at the right time, your man will come, all you have to do is keep developing yourself in all ramifications.
No lady/woman deserves to be pressured by society to get a man because she has the right to patiently choose the one that she will spend her life with.
It’s true that as ladies or women grow older their fertility rate reduces, there’s menopause to consider, but not being able to bear a child does not make you less of who you are.
Perhaps you have a high drive, a man is needed to satisfy that.
It could be due to the obvious reason that you have a high drive ( libido) which could be a major reason why you feel you need a man.
A man would be able to satisfy that aspect of your life which is facilitating your sense of urgency for a man in your life.
Intercourse is an essential part of human life and is created for the purpose of pleasure and procreation. For the reason of pleasure, you might desire a man to give you that due to your urges.
Although you might need a man because of this reason, it is essential that you ask yourself if truly a man can satisfy your urge and not that you’re highly addicted, if that’s the case, you don’t need a man, you need rehabilitation.
Only a man can be a father figure to your children.
This reason is peculiar to single mothers, if you’re a single mum, you might feel the need to have a man in your life because you want someone ( a man) that could fulfill the role of a father in the life of your children.
The children are likely to end up better and well mannered if there’s the presence of a mother and a father compared to if it’s only one party raising the children or child.
Only a man can teach a child how to be strong and disciplined enough especially if you have boys as kids.
It’s important that there are a lot of things to put into consideration before you can decide to make a man a father figure to your children, a few of these factors are;
- Is he responsible enough?
- Does he take care of his family?
- Does he live an exemplary life that your children can emulate?
Final Words
With these reasons that I have highlighted, I am positive that you’re more equipped with the knowledge of the reasons why you’re constantly desiring to have a man in your life which is a normal thing to experience in the life of a woman.
All you have to do is be patient and work on yourself to attract the right man and not act out of desperation.
