Desire in love: How to want what you've got

from Almost Forty · host Kylie Lately

This episode is a deep dive into one of the most misunderstood parts of modern relationships: desire. We unpack what desire really is (and what it isn’t), explore why it fades in long-term partnerships, and get honest about why feeling touched-out, overwhelmed, or emotionally unsupported makes intimacy feel like the last thing on your mind. We talk about spontaneous vs. responsive desire, the impact of resentment, and what actually turns us off, from the mental load to incapable partners. You’ll also hear about the surprising concept of narcissistic validation and why many women feel most turned on when they feel deeply wanted. Whether your sex drive has flatlined, feels confusing, or you just want more clarity, this episode will help you understand desire in a whole new way.   Access EXCLUSIVE & AD FREE EPISODES here: apple.co/iam Be part of the inner circle on Sunroom @kylielately Follow me on IG @kylielately & TikTok @kylielately  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
