What cuddling means after sex and does it shows likeness to your partner or bed etiquette?

[missaquarian]

What kind of cuddle do you give to someone who gave you a good sex, or someone you like, someone you love or simply someone you had sex. What are your thoughts and level of intimacy if you give these kind of cuddling to your partner? Or do you do this to someone you just had sex with no feelings or likeness involve. A. Spooning B. Sleeping in your man's arm C. On his chest D. You turned back on your partner, but he embraces you and spoon over you. E. Your partner doesn't cuddle you BUT he/she wants you to cuddle him/her. (He/She put your legs over him) F. Your on his arms, he grabbed your hand and put it on his chest, holding it tight. Bonus Question: Multiple kisses on the forehead. Does it mean anything?

Ah, cuddling was a point of tension between me and my late wife. I have very particular sleep habits, unfortunately. It's not that I didn't thoroughly enjoy cuddling with her (it was wonderful), but I can't really fall asleep while cuddling, even after months of trying. I must sleep on my side. I can't fall asleep any other way. If I was VERY sleepy, I might be able to fall asleep spooning, but only very rarely. Eventually we worked out a system where I would signal to her that I had to sleep, saying, "Good night, love." She might whine a little (which I loved) but then would know that I had to sleep and so we kissed and parted company, so to speak. Sometimes we would sleep back to back, touching one another. Sometimes we fought about this, but never very seriously.
A) Spooning: I enjoy it, but my wife (and as near as I can tell many women) prefer being the little spoon. It is difficult for me to fall asleep this way, even when I do the Superman big spoon
B) My woman sleeping in my arms: I enjoy it, but I can't fall asleep this way
C) Her head on my chest: I enjoy it but I can't fall asleep this way
D) Isn't this spooning, but I'm the little spoon? Since my wife was petite, this was almost comical
E) Not cuddling, but someone wants a cuddle: This was the story of our marriage. I couldn't get to sleep cuddling her.
F) ?

I think spooning could go either way. Emotional or just strictly physical.
Sleeping on his arm isn't as close Maybe physical but he might just not be in the mood to cuddle
on his chest is something I think is emotional
D. sounds like spooning to me? haha
E. sounds emotional. Nothing better then being all tangled up together.
and F. sounds emotional to me too.
Kisses on the forehead could go either way. Either really good sex or emotional

Like I voted I dont cuddle unless im interested. If its just sex, then its sex and then done

Thank you for your reply. With regards to letter D, I turned my back on him and go at the very side of the bed and he was at the other side of the bed, and he spoon over me, embraced me and it was a tight hug. I thought it was something special.

[joshuataylor92]

Yea thats definitely special :) means he wants to hold you

[missaquarian]

He wants me to be in his arms and will get my legs to spoon over him and will grab my hand and will fix my hair and kiss me on my forehead. And suddenly he will snore. Lol.

[joshuataylor92]

haha yep definitely loves to cuddle with you

A. Spooning: For me I do this with people I've slept with more than once.
B. Sleeping in your man's arm: I don't sleep on people, I need my space when sleeping, but cuddling an arm is less intimate than chest I would say. Probably anyone from casual sex to boyfriend.
C. On his chest: Strictly someone I like or a boyfriend.
D. You turned back on your partner, but he embraces you and spoon over you: Isn't this same as spooning?
E. Your partner doesn't cuddle you BUT he/she wants you to cuddle him/her. (He/She put your legs over him): Cuddles should go both ways. If they don't cuddle me I won't cuddle them.
F. Your on his arms, he grabbed your hand and put it on his chest, holding it tight: Usually relationship stuff or showing signs of emotional connection.

The forehead kisses depends on the relationship with your partner, if it was a one night thing and he kissed me on the forehead I would take it as a thank you, but if someone I was seeing did it I would take it as a more deep meaning than just "thanks for the sex".

I would never be intimate with a guy I didn't like. Note not saying I should be in love with him but there needs to be a level of attraction and chemistry to motivate me to want to be sexy with him. So I'd always cuddle with a guy and would even ask him to cuddle with me after the time. As for your list of things you'd do with someone... I've done them all from A-F with hook ups or had them done to me. It honestly doesn't mean shit. Girls think that because a guy is cute with her like that it implies he wants more. If he wanted more you'd be his girlfriend. Not his fuck buddy. That's the reality. I've been there and had guys act all sweet and amazing but then they'd never want more when I start to like them. Girls should accept that guys who hook up with you more then often just want that. Unless he's taking you on dates and has expressed that he has feelings for you, I'd take everything else with a grain of salt cause it usually means nothing more.

We are exclusively dating and said he loves me twice (although I wasn't so sure if he means it because he'll laugh say LOL after after teasing him about it) but he said it through text only.

[XRabbitHeartX]

If you are exclusive and not seeing other people then it changes everything. Just make sure he actually plans on eventually being with you and don't just see this as a short term fling.

[missaquarian]

I hope so, thank you. He just said let's take things slowly but I am seeing progress like holding my hands and pressing it while watching movies, so unlikely during first few weeks he'll just hold it for 10 minutes then let go. Now the entire movie he is holding it. Or like before if we will be intimate, he doesn't cuddle much. But now he wants his skin touch mine all the time. I don't want to sound assuming that he is now into me. That's why I'm here.

[XRabbitHeartX]

I think all the signs are positive. If he wants to take it slow then it's pretty good too because then he's making sure it's meant to be. Just be patient :)
