Theirs a clear difference between wanting and not being able to obtain and wanting but choosing to abstain.
If your a politician for example, you may want that private jet or that new Ferrari. But buying such extravegant items while your people are poor would be very selfish. But say you chose to not spend your tax money on new cars and planes and instead chose to live a lifestyle similiar to the people you serve. Isn't that admirable?
Now I said in most cases. In many cases people abstain for religious reasons. The fact that they value their morals and their religios values more then their own sexual gratification is admirable.
