For me it does. However, it is a double edged sword, the IE attention is wonderful, but it does bring to focus the lack of attention at home.

We all deserve to desire and to feel desirable.

How I would love to adore, and be adored - share feelings and experiences whatever they may be, laugh, be instinctively intimate, take delight in being together.

Makes it sound like a woman has a price on.

Yes I think that if you’re in a marriage/ relationship that makes you feel undesirable or undesired then having even a message from a potential IE makes all the difference and boosts your confidence and how you feel about yourself . And certainly if you have an IE that relationship can and should make you realise you are attractive and desired by others

"You might be surprised at how much attention a wedding ring can bring away from IE."

Maybe that works for you, but the wedding ring has always been a symbol to repel anyone from chatting me up.

Hubby calls it the proverbial dog marking of a tree. He believes a man sees the rings, and determines whether he can afford better or not and if he deems not then he leaves you alone.

Whether that theory is correct or not, who knows!

Sometimes a wedding ring is the attraction as at least you both know what to expect from one another. It's an affair not a long term commitment.

"An IE is no different to anyone showing an interest in you"

That may be... But colleagues and friends don't view you as a sexual being and strangers see a wedding ring and don't approach you so where do you get any interest outside of IE?

I'm not missing attention at home, far from it, I'm in a loving relationship where hubby tells me almost daily that I'm beautiful - but sometimes I feel that it's something that could be said out of habit and contentment rather than raw lust.

Having an IE means having someone who finds you attractive from an almost purely shallow perspective. It motivates you to continue to make that effort and not lapse into complacency... Which I feel in turn does make you more desirable at home.
