It comes as no surprise that whatever we feel after sex is purely chemical which then leads to physical, psychological and emotional effects. So after doing such a fulfilling and romantic act of making love, the body releases a bonding chemical called oxytocin which will be beneficial to both partners and should be fully taken advantage of. Why do you think that it has been aptly called 'Love Potion no. 9' according to some experts?
To women, oxytocin increases their empathy while breaking down the walls and barriers they have earlier. It makes them feel and think like they're 'in love' and that 'he's definitely the one'. To men, it's much simpler. Oxytocin just makes them crave for more the next round after they have recovered from their 'prolactin' release which is the chemical that makes them snap back to reality after a period of time of recovery.
This is most probably why men might be as keen on cuddling as much as you are, ladies. So, any sign of them trying to enjoy, should be appreciated and enjoyed. Some men would even say that the deeper and quicker they fall asleep after sex implies that the quality of the sex he just had with you is greater!
So take time to realize the importance of this moment, as it gives you an opportunity to bond closer with your partner, as it is a mix of mental, emotional and physical trust that they puts in you. So, cuddle up! It will make the two of you even happier, and helps to achieve a more rewarding and fulfilling relationship.
