god - god
I would say I need you because i love you seems to be more suitable for me.. as I love you because I need you seems to be more immature, demanding and selfish kind.. as after the inrest is fulfilled the I love thing will be over.

hey gal, when you're inlove sometimes you act like a child and here comes the saying i love you because i need you...because you want to please yourself, you just want to have your wants...but when you act maturely and think things on how to act on loving someone this is where you say i need you because i love you and you allow yourself to grow with this person...growing in a manner that you only think of your own interest but you also think of how to make your partner happy...this i should say you understand, respect and value the person as he is & not by changing him the way you want him to be...loving is risking...if you know how to take risk then you are ready to face love and grow.

i need you because i love you. its too selfish to think that you love the person for the reason that you just need him/her. its really sweet to long for the person because of love and not for the need of having someone.

I cannot live without her... i need her... because i love her. That mean i need her because i love her. For the first case, it sounds like. I cannot live without her , so i love her. that is incorrect. there are a lot of things we cannot live without that doesnot mean you love them all

Its hard to say on that one. I think the first one is kinda selfish. Me and my husband both agree. Its doesnt sound like love. I need you beacuse I love sounds like what you would say to get someone to stay with with you.
