Just met someone and keep shivering!

[minxthemanx]

After 10+ years of an unhappy marriage, I'm now divorced and have recently met someone, much to my surprise. We've been out several times, stayed over and get on really well. I've had my first orgasms for 10 years....Thing is, since seeing him last weekend my whole body keeps tensing into weird shivering, shaking. It can be while driving, lying in bed, talking to the kids...feels like I need to yawn and stretch which I do, but body then quickly tenses again. Very weird? Anyone experienced similar? How do I stop it?

Is that happening when you're thinking about him or when you're around him. Not sure about the tension and yawning, but shivering can be brought on by intense emotions and adrenaline rush. You might actually feel a bit clammy & cold too. It's harmless yet annoying, but you could always have a telephone appointment with a GP to clarify.

It’s just excess energy and emotions that need to move through your body. Ideally fo with it, move, stretch, yawn, shake, vocalise it if you can. Part of your womanhood it waking up that’s been dormant for 10+ years!!

Yes definitely happens when I think about him but other times too. Whole body tenses! I suppose parts of me have been 'dead' for a long time and it's a shock to the system. Hope it stops soon, it's very annoying!

Hello minxthemanx
Do you know what I think could be going on? Your body held on to so much tension for so long (while you were unhappily married) and it's now trying to unwind, (since meeting someone, enjoying his company & having orgasms). Your body is struggling to adjust, hence tensing up again. And, the yawning is a sign. I've been through the same thing myself. Could you try Barbara Curry Power of Yoga ten minute daily stretch? Just fantastic. Also, go for a professional deep massage if you can. Both will enable your mind and body to get "used to being happier" X

You are so right and funnily enough I wondered if a massage would help. I just don't want to be clenched and tense when I next see him..it's been so lovely.

Happy days. So pleased you've met someone. Have you tried Barbara Curry Power of Yoga before? X

Lots of yoga in the past so will dig the mat out and book a massage. Don't think my body or mind are used to being happy

Your mind and body don't know what's hit them do they?! Plus, is there a chance that you can't believe your luck, that you've met a guy you really enjoy being with, etc? That would be completely understandable at this stage x

I remember anxiety when I met DP I'd have to deep breath before a date, funny thinking of it now 15 years later.
I think it was a subconscious reaction from my ex as DP was very nice.
He sounds lovely some yoga will reduce the anxietybutterflies Enjoy.

I sometimes get this the day after really intense orgasms, like some kind of aftershock!

Do you mean you didn't even masturbate for ten years?
I'm really pleased you've met someone, sounds really exciting

If it was happening to me OP with my track record I would pressume it was comon sense leaving my body!!!! Have fun enjoy sure all will be well !

Miss Smiley no, with 2 kids with medical conditions and arse of a DH I had neither the time,,energy or inclination for physical pleasure... fairly sure last enjoyment was best part 10 years ago. May be that's why body has gone into shock!
