Why wouldn’t someone bring this up?

Let’s say a woman and a man were intimate after a date. The intimacy was strong and passionate felt like making love. Lots of eye contacting kissing your feet all over your body. Lets say the man didn’t want you to leave, he became super affectionate that night after the intimacy. Lots of hugging pulling you in for cuddling. Willing to pay for you not to go work the next day.

the next day comes and he reaches out and is initiating communication with you. Yet he hasn’t brought up what happened between you too? He’s more so talking about everyday things like work, asking you about your day etc….. but no talks about what happened? The texts are very thoughtful not one worded. He’s been communicating like this for days but no talk about what happened.

Why would he need to? You were both there and both knew what happened. He is carrying on in a normal manner.

MiddleAgedDread · 02/09/2025 19:27

What are you expecting him to bring up?

YetanotherNC25 · 02/09/2025 19:27

It’s a bit strange to want to debrief after good sex. What exactly did you want him to say?

KilkennyCats · 02/09/2025 19:29

He offered to pay for you to miss work?!

NoThanksNeeded · 02/09/2025 19:32

You were kissing each other's feet?
He offered to essentially pay you for sex?

Did you expect him to be like "wow last night we amazing. You did some great work?"

DoAWheelie · 02/09/2025 19:33

I don't think I've ever discussed a shag the next day. Are you expecting a report or a review or something?

MyDogHumpsThings · 02/09/2025 19:34

Seems odd and infantile. Not him.

Yeah like pay for the money that I would be making that day at work

How intimate? Are you talking about sex?

XenoBitch · 02/09/2025 19:35

What is there to talk about? To be honest, I would be weirded out by someone wanting to talk about a shag after the fact.
Maybe keep checking TripAdvisor and see if he gives you 5 stars.

I've had this happen once. Wish I'd taken him up on it 😂

Yes multiple rounds at that

OP posts:
Montereyjaaack · 02/09/2025 19:39

So bring it up yourself? I presume you want round 2 so tell him that…?

NeatKoala · 02/09/2025 19:39

You know many women would think he's a creep if he was starting to text about sex the following day, don't you 😂

Saltandpepperlife · 02/09/2025 19:40

Do you need feedback about how you did? A number out of 10?
what do you want him to say?

Not sex. Making love.

NeatKoala · 02/09/2025 19:40

Reminds me of that episode on Black Mirror, where people rate every interaction they ever have. It wasn't about sex, but is that what the OP wants?

5 stars, great shag, would recommend? 😂

NeatKoala · 02/09/2025 19:41

WHY is the 😂reaction not back

😂😂

Hairshare · 02/09/2025 19:41

Sounds fine apart from offering to pay you to stay off work. That’s weird and potentially bad for your relationship with your employer.

TwistedWonder · 02/09/2025 19:42

Paying me to miss work would be a red flag to me. But wanting to do an analysis on last nights shag would be an even bigger one. Why on earth would you expect a discussion after sex? It happened, you’re communicating well afterwards, what’s the issue?

There is a series called 'Upload' (is very good), where people using apps like Tinder etc get to give each other a review and rating after sex.

JumpingAnt · 02/09/2025 19:43

Are you the person in America with the obsession with arms in photos and the stalker man who gives you money before you even met him?

Teanbiscuits33 · 02/09/2025 19:44

He seems overly intense and a bit cringeworthy especially the foot kissing thing. He has a foot fetish and that alone would give me the ‘ick’ as they say. Different strokes for different folks, I guess 😂.

As for as the sex talk, I would maybe expect a comment immediately after, like ‘that was amazing’ or whatever but I wouldn’t want a conversation the next day, that’s odd.

PearlClutzsche · 02/09/2025 19:44

I think I’d cringe myself inside out if DH wanted to “discuss” our latest shag.

This man is keen and keeping in touch. What more do you want?
