edging

Closeness
I won’t do one night stands anymore
Don’t need a gf title but want to feel pretty certain I’ll see them again

The touch of naked skin, the kissing intimacy and closeness, seeing the other person's face when they orgasm, the scent, the afterglow... the ordering of pizza afterwards

Intimacy. Connection to another person. And trust. To be intimate is to trust another.

Intimacy and contentment. Not wanting to move.

I would say the feel of certain things. Like my neck being kissed or the slight tug of my hair. My favorite is the feel of his stubble between my legs. And of course, the 10 seconds of cuddling afterwards, lol. I do like my space.

Exposing yourself.

...psychologically!

Two orgasms?

Taste, smells the physical exhaustion.

The comment box suggests "use any personal experience or knowledge you might have." DISCLAIMER: the following is not from personal experience. A man and woman were in bed and as they were approaching the peak of excitement, she needed to get up to go to the bathroom. Part way there, she stumbled over a pile of clothes and fell. He leaped out of bed, went over to her and tenderly caressed her, and gently helped her to her feet. Later, they lay in bed satisfied. She needed to get up again, but due to her exhaustion, one of her knees gave out just as she was taking her first step away from the bed. He looked over at her and said "clumsy bitch." I guess each of these two would have a different answer to the question?

Being able to share some intimate time alone with the one you really care about

The intimacy, and for me, that's more important than the mighty O.

The connection, the endorphins, the oxytocin. the bonding. I want the naked soul, the true intimacy.

Yes! The touching, feeling ones heart beat, feeling her swallow breathing! The tension of her skin against mine, the warmth, and coziness of it all! Do not forget the multiple “O” in between al the above!

The prospect of snacks and more sex...

I think it's smell post-sex, some people are like an ambrosia. Though during, I think it's the primal nature of the act - when your eyes are closed, your mind a vacant black, with your body writhing to some ancient cadence of toss and turn - the kind of 'Shiva' sense of it, like an LSD Peak.

That deep feeling of being human..

That deep feeling of being human..

The afterwards cig, or the during cig depending whom your with. Lol

Being loved is the greatest reward 2 lovers might bestow one another. ...yes the orgasm is a pain killer excellent exercise possible healthy newborn 10 lunar months hence. ..I find the taste irresistible and the sight of a radiant satisfied lover the greatest memory 2nd to the hours after childbirth of my 2 daughters with their 2 moms and the 3 of us together 1975 1994

I'll be honest, orgasms don't "cum" easy for me. Even if I know I won't climax I still prefer to have sex than not to. It feels goods, it's intimate, it's good for your body both in happy chemicals and that it's a work out.

Read the answers. Thought a lot. I think every time is different. There have been times when I thought was actually bothering my partner. Nothing is good about that.

But when it is its best: The exploration, finding the parts of your partner's body that bring a response, feeling their desire, letting your own desire take over and control you, the sounds of heavy breathing and skin slapping skin, stopping and resting, trying something new, the look on her face when you first penetrate, the grasping to hold on, finding a different angle, the smell of your partner's privates, the taste of yourself in your partner's mouth.

Was this supposed to be essay or short answer?

OH! When it is cold and you uses your naked bodies to create warmth and eventually it is so hot you have to kick off the covers and your own sweat chills your body!

AND, a hot summer day, you get out of the pool and jump in bed. Your skin is cool, but you insert yourself in the hotness of an orifice.

Knowing you are both been intimate and pleasing each other , oh and little bit of experimenting

It's a great way to kill a couple of hours.

Personally, not having it.
