By desire I mean craving, possesing, depending on or wanting, that results from consciousness contacting a material or mental form or manifestation with a pleasurable feeling.

"Desirelessness" is the ultimate form of spiritual happiness. I wish I could get to that level one day. It means you are no longer a slave to your desires, it means you are now the master, it means you have the ultimate freedom; no one and nothing would ever threaten you nor control, you. You will enter a new realm of spiritual contentment that no mind could ever comprehend. Such experience is far beyond what the limited mind could experience because it can only be experienced with the spiritual heart which is infinite and therefore, you will be endowed with a great deal of wisdom. Most of us are slaves of our minds and desires so we have no idea what all this could possibly mean.

we may only guess, unless experienced...Sense of desire and pleasurable feelings or any feelings does not originated in a mind, but somehow brought in there...Mind just interpret feelings with its judgment, for piece of consciousness entrapped in there. That piece of consciousness , I presume, is that lost sheep of Israel Bible mentioned, where all the feelings originated.

I am not sure if that is included.
Many people finding joy and pleasure seeing other happy. Especially seeing someone in need gets help.
They did not get anything return other than just knowing someone is getting a better day.
It is like the voluntary work for charities. They don't gain anything materialistic. All they got are thanks and seeing smile on people's face.

No. I never want to stop desiring the love of my closest special people, for then I would be cold and devoid of happiness.

Yeah, I suppose that would be happiness. Because, I'd just be totally content with whatever I had, and wouldn't want for anything more.

No, because then I would be bored. I love needing things and planning how to get them.
