i want to see you this weekend
Preciso te ver este fim de semana


Explanation:
This is correct, the verb "precisar" with infinitive verb as subject does not need "de". Compare: "Preciso de alguém" with "Preciso encontrar alguém" (not "de encontrar alguém").
By the way, I fully agree with the other participants about your profile.
