  • When I have sex with my girlfriend, there is no question that there is an "afterglow." After masturbation, though, no such thing and I can't ever recall, even when I was a single man, ever having one.

    After sex it really is, no cliche, amazing. I typically do get sleepy - which luckily my girlfriend thinks is cute. She says, "Your eyes get heavy, you mumble a few things and an 'I love you' and then it is lights out." I really try not to, but there it is.

    Still, I know I feel satisfied in an animal sense. That feeling of having totally given in to my natural instinct to breed. We are hot and sweaty and breathing heavily and it is an incredible sense of release and a sense of my manhood.

    Paradoxically I also feel totally in love. I just shared something special and I want to hold my girlfriend and I feel warm and safe and cared for and that there is nothing in the whole universe but the two of us and nothing else matters but holding her and feeling her warm skin against mine.

    It really is amazing. It is all these conflicting things and yet it adds up to nothing like anything I can think of.

    With masturbation, though. Nadda. Zip. Nothing. It feels great while I am doing it and when I orgasm. I will sometimes lay there for a bit, covered in my own cum, but other than that, nothing. I am not sure if it is because the sex is so good by comparison or what, but masturbation is just it. That's it. Sex, by contrast, is the gift that keeps on giving.

  • My afterglow depends on how long I've gone without orgasming, and if I've found the perfect xxx or fantasy to fit my mood or I am just frustrated after hours of edging and just want to go to sleep. Prostate play always gives me afterglow but I'm not always into anal every day.

  • Yes, depending on intensity and how relaxed i was when i started. I've gotten up to grab something a few seconds after i finished, nearly face-planted because my legs were jello.

    • Lol didn't realize that was actually gonna get a like.

    • Yes I do. Not as good as the real afterglow, but still good

  • I get the opposite lol. I get suicidal and often self harm

    • Why? :(

  • Yes, for around 15 min. I have euphoric chills. VERY relaxed. My penis and prostate/PC muscles will continue to twitch sporadically as post ejaculation aftershocks which are almost as pleasurable but very relaxing too. I can even have ASMR like experiences if I'm with someone (female) hearing us both clean off with tissues. Its the crinkling sounds that make it extra pleasurable.

    • Ah. I think I know what you're talking about. (The first part.)

  • I mean, as far as I know, guys have shorter, more consistent orgasms. I feel some relief, and relaxation, but no more erogenous pleasure if the action stops.

  • I do enjoy the afterglow. The intensity and duration often depend upon how long it has been since I last released and how long I was going at it. I’m envious of the long lingering that some women may experience.

  • I do sometimes experience afterglow or about 3-5 mins after masturbating.

  • "Afterglow" ? Hah, ain't no "Afterglow" more like glistening jello,, and two smelly fingers.

    • Glizzy glow

    • Smelly fingers

  • Yeah it last for awhile maybe 1 to 2 hours

    • That's a long time!

    • Real long lasting..

    • @gilbertour22 if I have sex I feel tingles all day. Its annoying but nice

  • Yes. The duration depends on how strong the orgasm was and what the situation is. If I have to get back to business then it goes away very fast. If I'm in bed and in peace then it can last for a few minutes.

  • That's why I have such an aura!

  • It lasts a glorious 5 minutes.

    • Uh-huh, and a smile curling on the corner of my mouth

  • Well according to facts this happens but never notice. Meh

  • i don't think so. i'm missing out.

  • I do but only sometimes

  • Ya it's pretty short lived. Much longer with a partner

    • Lucky partner wish I have that chance lol

    • I'm sure you'll find yours

    • Why not you 🙄

    • Show All

  • I do! Thanks for asking!

  • Yes i get tingly in my penis and i remain hard for about minute or so
    it's like it wants me to keep jacking it off.

  • I feel my afterglow lasts longer than actual orgasm

    • Yes it does

    • My orgasms tend to take a bit longer and for whatever reason are rather intense. My entire body inside and out will quiver for what feels like and entire minute, so I do have an afterglow of sorts. I have to just lie still and just breathe until I can regain strength and composure.

  • Not really, but I sure enjoy it when a girl I'm with gets an 'afterglow'.

  • I get it. I never timed it. I guess a couple minutes.

  • Nope, I go back to whatever I was doing and act like nothing ever happened.

  • When I think of my girlfriend it lasts almost 10 minutes, but then I get sad cause she's not there with me and then I miss her. Kinda a bittersweet moment 😅
