Yeah, I agree, but when that external validation becomes excessive, we grow dependent on it. This is why, of course, we see people posting half-naked selfies on facebook and committing seppuku if they receive under 3likes/minute. I think 2s have the overwhelming desire to "love and be loved," and cannot love without being loved.
