The Thrill of Cuddling and Sleeping Together …

December 10th, 2011 by Elisabeth

I miss it. Sometimes. The cuddling that happens after an interlude and sleeping overnight with a man. I miss it a lot.As mentioned before, I don’t date and well, it might be nice to but right now doesn’t seem to be the right time. :) But that doesn’t negate the craving that I often have for the closeness that is shared between a man and a woman. The closeness that I’m suggesting is that which occurs afterwards. Or before. Or does it happen much if ever?Men are so different in that after an orgasm, they wish to jump up and go in a different direction. Completely fine.But when I’ve had an intense encounter with someone, I wish to feel their arms wrap around me and not let go for awhile. And often, there is just a craving to spend the night with someone. I often envy those women who are always getting those overnight dates. Those just don’t happen but rarely, very rarely, with me.I miss spooning. Especially if a man gives up a lot of body heat. You know who you are! Smile. The thrill of that exceeds even just cuddling at times because it does create the illusion of feeling safe. It’s a primal feeling for me when it happens. There have been times while laying in bed about to fall asleep where I imagine a man lying next to me and holding me. Powerful images.So if any of you out there reading this that enjoys cuddling, then by all means, feel free to cuddle me! In the process, you can also be sweet, tease, kiss my ears and tell me I’m luscious and wonderful. Then … I’ll be thinking those sweet things about you!P.S. I’m sounding positively feminine this morning, aren’t I? :)
