Does anyone else get hangovers after sex, or is that just me? I woke up today wanting to wear sunglasses, listen to 60s lounge music and smoke a cigarette a la Patsy Stone.

I have a question about libidos! This requires a little backstory though, so I apologize!
So it's been a couple months that I've been pretty stressed out and worried about life things like jobs, moving, money, being off birth control so experiencing my own natural, full force pms....and well, I also have been in a pretty undefined intimate relationship with a friend which has been so new for me for several reasons, one of them being this is the third person I've had that mysterious "love" feeling for and well, but it feels like such a completely new dynamic [first the fact that he isn't LONG DISTANCE- I can just come over today?! what?! THAT'S POSSIBLE?!] and second of all he's a bit older than me which (I'm 22) sometimes makes me hyper self critical of how "young" I may appear to him (psychologically speaking), making me lose confidence in just being myself around this amazing person, who I've had really honest discussions about this fact already.
Long story short! I've hardly had any real sexual libido and it makes me worry but then again, I HEAR TALK that this "stress" and pms? can really be a bummer for sex drives? Anyone have feedback on this kind of experience? I've always felt like a fucking "18 year old boy" when it comes to my sex drive because I'd masturbate all the damn time, so feeling like a "22 year old woman" (as if that means something! "Everyone is different", I know, I know!) for me is new and a bit stressing in and of itself, because my male counterpart has such a libido, it gets intimidating almost haha.

Well I think the stress and PMS thing is true, but not in the sense that it stops you getting turned on, more that it stops your mind landing on sex because it's elsewhere. I'm guessing if someone initiated sex with you, the cogs would still start to turn. It probably is a symptom of what's going on in your life for one reason or another; I know that there have been times where even if I've mentally scheduled in time to be sexy with myself that I'll in practice do other things and collapse into bed, thinking "I can't be bothered".
I can't really empathise with the older man thing, though. I'm in the same situation but I love being the idiot for a change!
I still get turned on, but it doesn't seem to happen nearly as often/easily as I'd imagine it "should" (compared to my past experience), so then I get confused and then frustrated- which just increases the mental block. I think I'm just over-thinking things as they happen, sigh.

stress = fight or flight response = body doesn't want to be caught off guard by environmental hazards, so you'll find it harder to relax, sleep, become aroused etc.
So I got home from a trip a couple days ago, and last night was the first time I was able to see my girlfriend. She dressed up really nice, and when a homeless guy saw her filling up her tank at the gas station he said, "You're way too pretty, you be careful out there tonight." Obviously, he thought she was a whore. My girlfriend was offended at first, but then said, "Wait, I look like a whore? AWESOME."
She told me this when she got to my place, after I fucked her brains out.
She also told me the same homeless guy caught some idiot smoking at the gas pump, and ran up to him and made him put out the cigarette before he blew the whole place up. I liked the idea of God as a drunken homeless man, driven to the brink of insanity by the senseless violent tragedy that is our "culture." So we made up a name for him, Wino Jesus. /awesome post coitus pillow (well, floor, really) talk
Accidental double post.

This thread could use some romance. (nfsw)
Hah! Genius.
Not sure where this belongs so I'll post it here. I've just shaved my junk in preparation for my vasectomy tomorrow afternoon. I'm pretty excited to get this done and over with. Last call for baby johnbrons, ladies!
Mother Earth and monogamous bareback partners thank you!
Since procreating is our main function, I often wonder if people who decide to not procreate have reached the evolutionary edge. I.E. they've clocked the game of life.
'I'll probably get sterilised at some point down the line.' 'Oh... Really?' Cue That Awkward Moment. Not that I don't want kids; I just really, really don't want to bear any of my own.
Seriously, though—congrats on deciding to take that big step, johnbron!
More tits. And ass. These are a few of my favorite things.
Sounds like someone's meds are kicking in.
I have two partners yet I haven't had sex in two weeks. What the fuck is going onnnnn!
Wait I'm confused. Isn't third base a blowjob? What's third then?
I always thought first was a kiss, second was feeling up/touching/boobs/humping, third was oral, home was sex.
If home as sex is the constant, and third isn't oral, where is oral on the base paths? Like the point of no return line after you round it? Blow jobs should have their own base as far as I'm concerned.
Why does he have to be the receiver for oral sex to be unexpected and welcome?
That baseball analogy thing needs more buttsecks as far as I'm concerned.
Touché, jessaminery. My misogyny continues.
And yes, agreed. Home plate is also anal, Marodi. It's all about how you cross it though. Walk in standing up? A nice vaginal penetration. A slide in the dirt, well, speaks for itself.
There needs to be a football analogy; that baseball one is too quick.
First Down.
Second Down.
Third Down, nope, wait,
First Down
I figured fingering was in the third base category. Yes/no?
(that's what I thought, too)
The whole baseball analogy needs to be thrown out the fucking window because it is so heteronormative.
I would say fingering/hand job is like the rounding of second? The midway point between second and third? Doesn't get its own base, in my eyes anyways.
I don't really see how. Kissing is gender/orientation neutral. As is heavy petting/taking shirts off. As is oral. As is sex, however you define it. Maybe you just don't like baseball, ever thought of that?

Home base is considered p-in-v sex, which is stupid.
The baseball analogy is pubescent (no offense, John Bron). We need to come right out and say "she gave me head."
