Fighting AFTER sex
This may seem like an odd situation, and maybe it is because Googling it doesn't produce anything helpful.
Whenever my DH and I have sex during the day (ie, we don't go to sleep right after), we end up having a huge fight within 12 hours. HUGE. We hardly ever fight usually, and these are the screaming, public-scene, horrible name-calling sorts of fights.
The sex is great, and varied so I can't really point to anything specific with the sex itself that would cause a mood swing like this.
The bad mood is in both of us, not just me, so I don't know if it's hormones or pychological, or something else.
Does anyone else struggle with this? What did you do to help the situation?
Re: Fighting AFTER sex
The first thing that popped into my head is what was the attitude about sex like when the two of you were growing up. If you were raised to think that sex was a dirty, shameful thing those feeling might be coming to the surface after you have been intimate.
Just a thought.
Maybe one or both of you has a big decrease/increase in energy or excess testosterone after sex and fighting is how you release it.
Could you guys do it right before bed instead of during the day? Or even just take a quick nap afterwards to chill out?
And ditto Kuus. Not having an orgasm during sex can definitely make one quite ornery.
