📚Need, require and want can be followed by the active or passive to-infinitives to express active or passive meanings, respectively:

👉I need to make a phone call.
👉Sometimes, people need to be told the truth.

👉My job requires me to handle many letters from abroad.
👉They required the information to be sent as soon as possible.

👉I wanted to stay for a few more days.
👉It was obvious that he wanted to be invited.

📚But active gerunds after these verbs express passive meanings:

👉Your hair needs cutting. (It should be cut.)
👉These photos require careful handling. (They should be handled carefully.)
👉The windows want cleaning. (They should be cleaned.)
