I’ve been seeing this amazing guy for about two and a half months. We met quite organically, just by chance, rather than online dating or anything.

Anyway, our relationship began with a pretty intense mental connection (literally hours upon hours of conversation right from the start) but there was also plenty of physical attraction as well.

We didn’t have an official “what is this?” relationship talk. However, he told me a few weeks ago that he is not seeing or sleeping with anyone else. I’m not sleeping with anyone else either.

We finally had sex this past weekend. The sex was AMAZING. The best sex I’ve ever had in my life.

But now some insecurities are setting in. The very first time we had sex happened very spontaneously. Neither of us were expecting it exactly, it just happened. And he climaxed in something like 90 seconds and seemed really ashamed of that. Despite how quick the whole thing was it was actually seriously hot. But he seemed to think he’d disappointed me. We had sex again later that evening and he was able to last longer and it was amazing. But after sex he seemed distant. He wasn’t cuddling me as much as I’m used to (although we’d not previously had sex we’d slept in the same bed a few times). We talked a little and it was sweet and then we both fell asleep.

In the morning he initially looked really fried, like actually shell shocked and he seemed more distant than usual. Then we had breakfast together and he started going back to his usual self. But he seemed shyer than before. He’s set up the next date and has also discussed various things he wants the two of us to do or see together over the next few weeks. He also referred to himself as “your boyfriend” and looked sooooooo shy when he said it. The thing is, he didn’t used to behave all that shy at all before we had sex, so why now?

Before we had sex I was CRAZY about him. Now that we’ve had sex I’m just blown away by how amazing he is (in and out of bed). But I’m not sure how he feels. I was a bit worried about how he became distant, although as I said he more or less returned to normal in the morning. Is it normal for a man to become distant briefly immediately after sex?

He has fallen in love with you and now feels vulnerable.

another thing I'm wondering about is the sex itself. Like I said, I found it amazing. But it was very different to any sex I've ever had before. The first time was extremely raw and sort of primal. We more or less ripped each other's clothes off and were unable to even make it the bed and did it on the floor. (Then we went out to dinner etc etc). The 2nd time was not quite as frenzied, but it was still extremely intense, with me having an orgasm just from penetration (which is a first for me) and having completely simultaneous orgasms. I'm wondering if he thinks I'm very whorish actually?? It was all extremely full-on

OP please don't worry! It sounds like it was fab and he won't be thinking any such thing I'm sure!

Have you been in touch with each other yet?

pudding21 · 01/11/2017 15:30

Why would you be whoreish because you had sex twice and had an orgasm through penetration for the first time? He probably thinks you are smokin hot!

I'm wondering if he thinks I'm very whorish actually??

Stop it! Stop that thinking right now.

Recognise your brain is tormenting you and tell it to stop.

If he thought you were whorish for enjoying sex with him he'd be an arsehole. It seems on some level you think that's an appropriate response, and that means your views on healthy sex have been twisted somewhere.

It sounds like you're simply enjoying each other. Put that guilt away and enjoy yourself!

Saffron2018 · 01/11/2017 15:53

@flyinggeese yes we've been in touch by text x

@pudding21 I've never been so into sex before lol. I guess I'm the one who is shocked by myself (pleasantly so)

@raisinsarenottheonlyfruit I was raped years ago in my early teens. I've always associated sex with violence and trauma. This is the first time I've actually completely LOVED sex. I can't believe this has happened ✨😍

Saffron2018 Flowers I'm so sorry to hear that.

But also I'm so pleased to hear that you're discovering that sex can be wonderful! It's OK to enjoy yourself. In fact, enjoying good sex with the right person is positively good for you.

Saffron2018 · 01/11/2017 16:28

@raisinsarenottheonlyfruit thanks xx

Sounds amazing. Glad all is okay

CurlyhairedAssassin · 01/11/2017 18:14

All sounds perfectly normal behaviour for the beginning of a fantastic relationship. I’m jealous as I remember those first months with DH and enjoying the sex so much! just appreciate and enjoy! You wouldn’t have enjoyed it so much if you both weren’t right for each other.

Saffron2018 · 01/11/2017 18:46

Prior to us having sex he was always a bit on the shy/disorganised side. Our actual dates have been amazing but while the communication in between has been warm and pleasant enough, it's not been especially regular. He tends to call about 3 times a week I guess. He doesn't always respond to texts, he might call the next day instead. I tend not to call.

Anyway, nothing has changed since we had sex. Why would it I guess? Maybe a part of me thought he'd miraculously begin sending better and more frequent texts and telling me how amazing he thinks I am. He has shown me he thinks I am amazing, but he doesn't really tell me.

We actually don't even have the next date set up. But that's not unusual either.

Oh the joys of these little insecurities lol

Any date set up yet?

TDHManchester · 06/11/2017 05:19

I'm male. I feel that you should just enjoy it for the moment but don't start thinking this will develop into a fully committed relationship. Live your own life and dont be hanging around for him or continually checking your phone. It could disappear as quickly as it came.

lolalotta · 06/11/2017 06:00

With technology what it is there isn't any excuse for not being more in touch, I think you need to try and not fall for him yet and try and find out where's he's at!!!

mylittlepony6 · 06/11/2017 06:56

I'm happy for you OP. Sounds amazing! I know what you mean about the insecurities fueling desire though x
