Where has the desire gone?

​

Desire can be very difficult to define. How do you know when you have it? How do you know when it's gone? You may be wanting to have sex less often or even not at all. Maybe it feels more exciting to watch the latest episode of your favourite television show than to spend quality time with your partner.

 

Desire doesn't have to be about sex but it can be about the feeling of wanting to be close to your partner. You often hear about people feeling desire for their partner while watching them from across the room, or while they are telling a story or a joke. In some cases, some distance is what is needed to feel desire and a want to be close. Humans can be complicated, and may need some guidance to work through these issues.
