Crying after Sex?
First of all I have full faith in my husband, I know he loves me and I love him deeply. Secondly, we're only using condoms as preventative.
Okay, you know that. Now, I would like to say that because of the condoms we have to cut cuddling afterward short so he can clean up. I don't know why but as soon as he pulls out, I'm blubbering. My eyes just well up and I cry. I have no idea why! Anyone else feel this ever?
Re: Crying after Sex?
What you've got is endorphins and an emotional release.:) Perfectly normal.

My H and I use only condoms too and we don't cut cuddling short unless we're both ready to get up. Granted we don't cuddle that long cause I have to go pee so as to avoid UTIs.
Sometimes my fiance and I get really into it it lasts over and hour and then we both finish and I am bawling my eyes out. I have no idea what it means either! I have attested it to maybe we were very emotionally connected at climax?
He has to go clean up afterwards as well, but when he sees that I am crying he will come and just hold me until I stop. I feel silly for crying, but I really think it is just an emotional connection. Physically, it's probably because of all those stupid hormones we women have. Grrrr...
I agree
I do as well.

Ditto this. We snuggle for a few minutes, then take care of things, and then get back into bed and snuggle more.
Yes, actually it's quite normal. As a PP stated it's a release of hormones.
Yep, us too. It doesn't have to be either/or.
Make a pregnancy ticker
Phew, okay thanks guys, except for that last response - I feel much better. I was so worried that something was wrong with me! Yay for hormonal girls who make other hormonal girls feel better. =P
Crying is perfectly normal. It's the emotional and hormone release. It's medical - not just that you are a blubberer lol
A great orgasm and connection certainly aids it. Just let your DH know that you really enjoyed your sex life, it causes such a rush of emotions and release in you so you cry and you need a little extra cuddling/holding afterwards. There is no reason that you have to cut cuddling short.
