Why do I get emotional after my bf finishes inside me?

Hey everyone, this is my first post on this board and I have a question to ask. When my bf and I are having sex and he cums inside me, afterwards I get really emotional and start crying. This has happened several times and I was just wondering if it's a common thing. It doesn't scare my bf when it happens which is a good thing, he will usually cuddle with me and let me fall asleep in his arms. I'm 21 and he is 40 and we have been together for 2 years. I'm am on the pill to be protected.

Do you orgasm?

Yes, I always have very strong orgasms with him and then after I completely lose it and start crying.

Sounds like an emotional release. Like a pressure valve. How joyful is your sex? Do you laugh and play and have fun with it? OR is it always serious?

We have a lot of fun in bed, never a dull moment!

Nothing abnormal: making love can be a very emotional experience. It sounds like your bf handles it well - not an easy thing for a man to do!

Its actually pretty common, and probably has more to do with your orgasm than his finishing inside of you... do you get emotional when he finishes some other way? Do you also orgasm when he finishes some other way?

Orgasms release all kind of feel good chemicals and hormones and your emotions can be profoundly affected after having one. From deep feelings of emptiness for some women, to feelings of overjoyed happiness for others, pure pleasure bliss in the clouds feelings for others and some have any mixture of emotions from feeling content and loved and happy to feeling vulnerable, raw and exposed.

Your man is probably aware of the fact that a lot of women get emotional after sex and is mature enough to not be bothered by what is naturally happening to you. Nothing wrong with it. Being emotional after sex sure beats feeling nothing after it.

I agree. I'm sure the maturity your bf has helps a lot.

I sometimes cry before, during and after making love, lol~~I get so overwhelmed with emotion and love for my partner and it feels good to just let it go.

I'm usually laughing through my tears because he will say something funny like, "Was I that bad?" and the moment will pass.

No shame in letting what you feel come through! Crying is such a great release.
