I see now what you mean — Теперь я понимаю, что вы имеете в виду.
д) Глагол feel употребляется в Continuous в значениях {"воспринимать на ощупь" и "чувствовать себя, чувствовать эмоции", но не в значениях "вызывать ощущение" и "считать".She was feeling in the dark for a pen — Она в темноте пыталась нащупать ручку.

4) Некоторые глаголы состояния (например, be - быть want - хотеть, like - нравиться, love - любить, remember - помнить, expect - ожидать, hear - слышать) все же могут иногда употребляться в формах времен группы Continuous:They were being very foolish. — Они вели себя очень глупо.
