Sexual encounters can be a bit of a rollercoaster – there’s lots to enjoy but also some twists and turns that keep you on your toes.

In the spirit of sharing our collective knowledge and experience, here are five things that tend to happen after everyone has cum and the deed is done.

### You should be feeling good

Whatever kind of sex you’re having, as you lie there in the aftermath, you should be enjoying a bit of after-glow.

There are lots of emotional reasons why we feel good after having sex, but there are also some physiological ones as well.

For example, if you’ve just been fucked – all the nerve endings that centre around the anus will have been given a really solid working over. That’s a lot of intense pleasure signals that your body will be processing even after he’s flooded you with his load.

But sex of any kind is going to encourage your body to release endorphins – these are naturally occurring hormones that your body produces. Endorphins improve your mood – they make you feel happy and content. They’re the opposite of cortisol, which is often described as the “stress hormone” – boosting your endorphin levels through having sex helps your body to keep things in balance.

Releasing endorphins is a major signal from your body that you’ve had a great time and that you can kick back and just feel good about yourself for a bit.

The release of endorphins is one of the reasons that sex is often described as a way to relieve stress or tension that you might be feeling. Not only does a solid fuck take your mind off whatever has been worrying you, the endorphins will also help to put you in a more positive state of mind.

Another hormone that is closely associated with sexual activity is oxytocin. Oxytocin plays a number of roles in a man’s reproductive system, but one study into the hormone found that anxiety and depression levels were lower in men who were sexually active – this indicates that regular sexual activity can help maintain healthy levels of oxytocin in the body.

Another reason that a sexual encounter should leave you feeling pretty good is that you’ve had a workout – sex is exercise in its most functional form. When you’re having sex, your heart-rate is elevated, you’re working up a sweat, and your major muscle groups – legs, arms, backs, abs – have all been playing their part. A sexual encounter burns calories at about the same rate as a moderate workout. That doesn’t mean that you can skip leg day, but it all helps you to stay fit and healthy.

### You may need to set some expectations or boundaries

Obviously, it depends on who you’ve just had sex with, but the general rule is that once the deed is done, then you’re going to want your hook-up to leave so that you can get on with the rest of your day.

This is probably going to work both ways - if he's the host, he's going to want you to go once you've shot your load.

The simplest and most effective approach is to be direct and honest. Whether it’s because you’ve got to work early the next day or you’re expecting your wife home at any minute, a simple “let me walk you out” clearly indicates that it’s time for your guest to leave.

### You may want some repeat business

While the general rule with hook-ups is to fuck and then leave, you may want to make it clear that you'd be open to some repeat business if that's on the table.

It's easiest to negotiate this post-fuck once you've gone your separate ways.

If you've had a good time and you'd like to see him again, the direct approach is always the best.

Give it at least a couple of hours and then send him a message to let him know that you'd be up for another hook-up sometime.

You need to be 100% prepared that your expectations or feelings may not be reciprocated. He may reply with something vague and noncommittal, he may just say "no thanks", he may ghost you, he may block you.

Obviously, that kind of rebuff is difficult to take - it's impossible not to see it as anything other than a personal rejection.

If possible, try not to overthink it. There are many reasons why repeat business may not be on the table – and most of them probably don’t have anything to do with you.

The guy you’re interested in could be on the down-low or in a relationship, or just might not be in the headspace where they can contemplate anything more than anonymous hookups. Don’t let it get you down – at least you asked the question, and now you know where you stand.

Also, he might say yes. He might have been thinking the same thing. He could be really into you and you’ll soon be adopting a rescue puppy and planning a mini-break. You won’t know unless you ask the question.

### You may have popped your cherry

Your first time having sex doesn’t have to be some magical fairytale, but it is a milestone. It might be great, it might be forgettable, it might need to be discussed with your therapist, but it will definitely leave you feeling more confident and experienced when it comes to navigating your next hookup.

If you are contemplating your first man-on-man experience, you’re probably navigating practical considerations such as douching and how far you're prepared to travel for dick. But an important starting point is to learn about sexual health.

Whatever your level of experience or however you describe your sexuality, if you’re a dude who has sex with dudes, then you need to know about PrEP, PEP, TasP, and Doxy-PEP. There’s a range of STIs out there that you need to know about – you can’t protect yourself against them all, but getting tested regularly and staying up to date with the latest information is essential for sexually active men.

### You may have unleashed your inner-slut

What will almost inevitably happen after you’ve had sex is that – as soon as you’re through the refractory period – you’ll want to have sex again. That’s just how we’re built.

What are you waiting for? Get out there and get amongst it!
