Crying during sex.

[shouldhavebeenme]

I've had a shit week. DH and I not been getting on and I'm waiting on a referral to the breast clinic as I've found a lump.

We've always had a good sex life (22 yrs together but still fancy him like mad). The tensions and worry of the past week came to a head earlier and we basically pounced on one another. The sex was brilliant but during it I felt this wave of emotion and began to sob.. I've never felt anything like it before. DH was a but freaked out, thought he hurt me. We finished the job but I still feel really shaky and emotional.

Has this ever happened to you?

Yes. Usually after though. It's happened to both me and my girlfriend so it doesn't bother either of us. For me it's the emotional let down of the release and the connection I feel to her at that moment. I think it's pretty normal. We just have snuggles after, it's no big deal for us.

I just wanted to give you some flowers for the shit week and referral

Has happened to me more than once! I don't think it's that unusual especially if you've had an orgasm. Even if not - the cuddle hormones can open the emotional floodgates a bit.

I hope next week is a bit better x

Thanks everyone. It was the most connected I've felt to him in years. Funny old game, innit!? Going to pour myself a large glass of wine and try to chill.

It happens to me occasionally (maybe once or twice a year). Seems to occur when the sex is particularly intimate/tender or I have a long orgasm. DH says he can tell when it's going to happen as well! He takes it as a compliment! Yes, definitely about feeling connected

Hope you get sorted health-wise and you have a calm week this week x
