Not exactly. Selkies are warm blooded, but they still need to keep their body temperature high enough to function normally. Them getting the chill is like walking to school in the middle of the winter in a cold climate without any cold protection. Assuming that she doesn't freeze to death, she would desperately want to warm herself up. Since she is a monster that's been stripped of her sense of security, she would begin to desire a human man.

In a sense, if a selkie moved to a warmer climate, they wouldn't desire a human man since she wouldn't get the chill from removing her furs.
