You've just set an example for me.
Now, about the desire part, yes, there are one or two who let me know I'm in their thoughts in an eyebrow wiggling way.
A great feeling for me, hope it never fades.

I believe it was 80% of people said they didn't ever feel desired.
I found that huge percentage quite sad.
I know some of us haven't got partners/spouses etc, but still 80% is a huge figure, especially for those who are in a relationship as well.
They said it was sad when some people, male or female, try to make a special effort for their loved one, but end up feeling they may as well be invisible.
Any feelings on this?
All the time so I am one of the lucky ones .
I just look at my husband and love him .
He always makes me feel wanted .
It makes people confident to know someone wants and need them .
Without it people can feel alone even in a relationship and that is very sad.

Re: Do you feel desired?
I have definitely felt 'desired ' in the past but have no wish to be now
Being desired is not always a good thing I might add.
The year after my husband died I took my little boy on holiday to Devon and we stayed in a lovely hotel in Dartmouth . We were having dinner one evening and a man in a suit alone at the next table never took his eyes off me, it was so embarrassing. He then sent a note to my table via the waiter asking me to meet him in the bar later . It spoilt my whole meal
There have been other occasions when I have been 'desired' having had no wish to be, I think young widows are seen as fair game by some men.

But I do feel amongst the other ladies a twinge of 'desire' from Dingaling's lovely post.
