How To Know What You Want What do you want? This is a difficult question to answer because for most, what they want is only a matter of how they feel. Their feelings and emotions are an intuitive guide; beckoning them to desire and be attracted to some things while forsaking and being repulsed by other things. The only problem with this is that most people don’t know what they want; rather, they know what other people seem to have. According to the theory of Memetic desire, much of what we want is the result of what other people have. Our single friends all get into relationships and suddenly we want to be in a relationship. Our friends all get the new iPhone and suddenly we want to make an upgrade. Our social instinct to “fit in” means that we largely mimic what others model. If you are basing what you want on how you feel then you are likely to be misled to pursue what it seems other people have.
