I'm not someone who needs a lot of verification of a relationship or has many expectations from it

Absolutely. Like I suspect a lot of people who write, or livejournal, are, I'm both pretty independant in my emotional wellness, and an introvert in the classic sense. It does, on occasion, lead to the impression that I don't need sig. other to be happy - which is, I guess, true, but what doesn't follow is that I'm going to up and leave over it.
