The author suggests that the desire to belong is a very powerful—if not the most powerful—human emotion. Do you agree or disagre
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer with Explanation:

Yes, I agree with the assertion that the desire to belong is a very powerful-if not the most powerful-human emotion. It stems from the human need of <em>"belongingness." </em>People live in a society, thus it is very natural for them to want to belong, so they can be accepted.

This desire is powerful and it can be explained in many situations. For example, a girl is very close with his girlfriends. One day, she noticed that each of them bought the latest gadget in school. Since she wanted to fit in and be accepted by them, she'll also ask her parents to buy her the same gadget.  

<u>However, there are disadvantages to having such a powerful desire depending on your motivation.</u> If a person's motivation to belong is<em> due to pleasing other people, then he will feel more lonely and dissatisfied. </em>He will then follow a pattern of seeking approval every time.
