Is it normal that lately i've be getting turned on easily?

I'm out of a relationship, so I haven't had sex for several months. I noticed suddenly a thought will pass through my head, "I would totally have sex with this person", in certain seemingly random situations.

For example, I was viewing musical videos on Youtube one night and came across this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9cu6AL3d-E&feature=related

While watching this video that thought passed through my head.

Then today I took my dog to the vet for antibiotics and to look at options for other heath problems she has. He was so good with me and helpful. He took the time to detail things and explain everything without being condescending. He wasn't fake and just -dealing with me-. He seemed to generally care for the animals he sees and wasn't just there to get paid. As he was talking to me(37-42 him, 23 me) I thought, "I would totally have sex with you."

These aren't feelings I want to or will pursue, and I get why the feeling comes on(I notice characteristic I enjoy, such as a beautiful singing voice or compassion and intelligence.), but these feelings I've NEVER experienced. Especially with strangers in such a short amount of time.
I didn't even experience this feeling with my EX. With my EX it was more like I loved him and was in the mood, or heavy petting lead to urges.

If I were a different person, I feel like I would try to fulfill these desires. Thinking these things unnerves me a bit. I feel like some tramp for even thinking these things.

Again, I have NO interest in going after them like a sex crazed maniac, I just want to know if I'm not alone in having these sudden thoughts. Is it normal?

    Lack of sex will do that to you. Try masturbating more

    • Mental block, I can't get into it when I try. I just don't get anywhere with it. I can get to the point I'm aroused, then it's just a tortured feeling I can't satisfy.

      I'm not if sure other woman have this same problem. Maybe I should do a post on that one some day...

    I think it could be hormones or just a state of happiness you're in that you respond very emotionally to mundane situations.

    Personally I didn't like the video you posted-the bald guy singing like a opera diva just does nothing for me. But everyone has their own taste in music.

    I think it's very cute that you want to sleep with anyone that rubs you the right way-but just remember it's in your head. The other person could be a sadistic psychopath for all you know.

    Get to know people first before acting on your emotions as nice as they are.

    • And maybe you are right in the first line. I'm in a serious state of elation that may make me more sensitive to good characteristics.

      Thanks for that notion. :)

        You're welcome. Ya I've gone through certain emotions too. When I was younger and felt more 'elevated' I thought other people felt like me too-but realized it was just me.

        Good feelings are contagious-when you're happy, it can rub off on others and same for bad feelings-it makes people want to avoid you.

        It's also like when you're drunk-people seem nicer and more attractive till buzz wears off. lol

    • I specifically said I don't want to actually sleep with them. Just feel a bit turned on by characteristics that come to the forefront of people. I think it's weird and totally out of MY norm and wanted to know if it was normal in general.

      Also, lol. I've never listened to that kind of music. It's not the type of music, it's just something in the voice that captivates me. It sounds raw and pure. Passionate.

        I know that you didn't want to actually sleep with them-I was addressing the emotions you were having.

        Ya music is a very subjective thing-I've heard stuff that other people love that I disliked and vice versa, all that matters is that you like it.

    i think it's normal. even though i had more of those situations during puberty, they haven't stopped completely.

    Back during my teen years, i'd run into situations once or twice a day where all of a sudden i got really hot for a person, basically i would have been all over them if they cared to even drop a hint.

    Thats gotten significantly less of an issue ;)
    In that i got my "hormones" under control a lot better, but from time to time i still get in situations that seem loaded and give me sudden urges. Usually if i had not had sex for a while. I blame pheromones, personally.
