anyone get emotional and cry after sex?

I did other day, maybe it's just cause feel closer to him lately, and hate that we're getting older

No but I can understand why, as its such an emotional connection.
As for getting older, don't hate it, embrace it! Age doesn't really change anything, it's just a sign of longevity & experience, the latter can only come with age!

I don't think I have ever cried, tho I may have felt like it. I'm not a big crier...I wish I could cry sometimes!

I have read some articles that imply that crying after sex can be influenced by hormonal releases of intensely satisfying sex followed by not having those hormones in such a high concentration (essentially withdrawal symptoms).

jns, if you've wept after intimacy, don't be afraid to share. No pressure, though.

^^^I'd say that jns has nailed it^^^

I've never cried after sex, but I could've after she left.

It's my sense of humor again.

I wish you were right. While I don't need ED meds, I can't do it a whole lotta times like I did when I was in my very reckless youth.

yep probably hormones plus emotional connection plus I hadn't cried for a really long time
