Topic: Do you still enjoy intimacy?

Once in a while, I take a good look in the mirror and am shocked to see how much this body has aged. Most of the time, I feel younger than I look, especially, emotionally. That's where the confusion sets in. I adore being looked at with loving eyes. I miss being randomly touched. You remember, that special person, just passing by and lays a hand on your shoulder and gives it a gentle squeeze. Or, sitting in the restaurant and she reaches over and takes your hand, for no reason. I still enjoy being wanted, emotionally and physically. It's been a long time and I miss those things. Is it immature of me to still long for those things or are they normal feelings? How about you, do you get that way? How do you feel about getting that close to someone again?

I still miss those moments. I have learned that on this site I get the "Hallmark" feeling sometime when my friends here reach out and touch my shoulder and give it a loving squeeze. It is not the exact same thing you are talking about, but it is a beginning to reteaching my body to enjoy life again!!

Very well said, I miss those exact same things. I miss doing those things for a woman. Yep being in love is sooo nice.

Having recently turned 50 I was okay with it until little things like the stiffness in my knees and problems with my teeth ,and trying to retrain my brain to grasp the math I need for my course, made me take a second look in the mirror.But life is full of set backs.I intend to march on. My 81 yr. dad has been a great example to me of copeing with whatever live throws at you. I definately miss those things you mentioned above.Especially having that special guy who can't wait to see me and spend time together whether it is a movie,dinner or just showing me how to change the oil in my car.When my late husband would whistle at something I was wearing, I can still remember you are not imature, far from it!I wouldn't want to lose those feelings I don't want to feel dead inside. have fun don't take things on this sight to seriously.

Not immature at all, and so so normal. I feel young inside, but when I look at myself and the ravages of time, I think "boy, he is really going to have to love me a lot!"

Your right about that. I to have learned a great leason from everyone that has come into my life. I almost forgot about that. Thank you for reminding about it. I guess I just tried to block most of it out.

It's been a long time and I miss those things. I wish I had experienced them at least once so I could miss them. Maybe in the next life. If celebacy is worth anything at the pearly gates at least I'll be in good shape for that trial.

oops i forgot to type..... i know exactly what you mean. I miss having someone come up behind me in the kitchen and wrap their arms around me or kiss my neck. I miss the little pat on the butt as that special person walks by. I miss the goodbye kiss in the morning as we went off to work. I don't know if you ever get over missing those things, but i sure would like to feel them again some day.

My opinion is - it is not immature and they are very normal desires, all people need to be shown love. And it is so wonderful to be special to someone, better yet if they are special to you. Given the opportunity i would love to get that close to someone again

I think that intimacy, like love has different levels. I have experienced intimate moments with ladies & value those times greatly. But, the intimate moments with THAT special person, can never be achieved again. So, close,tender, intimate moments will happen again. You have to accept each for it's own level. Those memories you MIGHT want to duplicate, prob. will never happen.
