Hello and welcome to the new mindset hootis podcast. My name is Case Kenney at case.kens.k on

Instagram and this is my weekly podcast where I create short no BS episodes dedicated to helping

you become the person you're meant to be, leave your comfort zone and live a purposeful and

fulfilling life. Let's go.

Thank you. live a purposeful and fulfilling life. Let's go. All right. Welcome to episode 739. Hello, my friend. Welcome to a fresh new episode of New Mindset Who Dis, as always. Thank you so much for listening. Thank you for supporting me. And today, I want to talk about what it means to be truly desired by your partner, like truly desired at a deep level. And this, of course, is so important because we all want to be desired. It is a fundamental human pull that we have in life.

It's what we look for in friends. It's what we look for in partners. We want to be desired by someone in the same way we desire them. We want to be wanted. Of course we do. But I think from my own

personal experience and from the last almost decade of writing online and doing the podcast,

we kind of have collectively lost the sight of what it means to be desired at the depth

of the desire we deserve. Not surface level desire. I'm talking deep desire. So let's talk about

this. And I won't bear the lead. When I think about true desire,

I think about curiosity. To be desired by someone is to be with someone who never stops being

curious about you. And I'll talk about what this means and why it's so important, but let's bookmark

this for a moment. Desire is the pull to keep exploring a person long after the obvious has been revealed.

Deep desire is an instinct to lean in, it's instinct to ask another question to uncover

details about someone, even when there's nothing to gain except for the joy of discovering

another layer about them. Deep desire. But back to our human nature,

why do we have such a strong pull to this in life? We all want to be desired. We all want to be

wanted because it confirms in us that we are alive, not only in our lives, but in someone else's

world as well. Their desire for us

is proof that who we are, our weirdness, our thoughts, our presence, our ambition, everything about

us, who we are is worthy enough, noticeable enough to interrupt the rhythm of another person's life,

the way they go about their life.
