Lillie,

Good point about the difference between enjoying your own sexuality and feeling sexually desirable. Feeling desirable does generally require someone else's participation while feeling sexual or sensual does not. Feeling desirable means we are the specific object of someone else's sexual interest (at least for that moment). Folks can blast me for this but in the end it does take two to tango.

Journey,

Giggles on the "cheap" and "romantic" analysis of the lingerie choice. My H would do the same if pressed into it.

OTOH - if the cheerleader thing has merit there are other ways to do the "cute/sexy" that your H would probably appreciate. For example - he doesn't react to you in pretty lingerie but what about in workout clothes with your hair in a ponytail?
