50 Shades of Grey - Aftercare

Aftercare

A scene doesn't necessarily end when the toys are put away. Cuddling and comforting is a great way to wrap things up. Many subs like to be held after a scene. Some people can be very emotional after playing and need to be taken care of. Also it is a good idea to have some snacks and juices and/or caffeinated drinks handy, as well as plenty of water. Aftercare can also be one of the best parts of a scene, many couples/partners talk of a level of intimacy and closeness that they don't get otherwise. After an intense scene people can have various reactions anywhere from several hours to a few days. Subs AND Doms can experience an emotional drop (usually called top or bottom drop) . If you are not a couple/group living together you should keep in touch. Email works but a phone call is better and actually getting together is best. You may not experience a drop, but a follow up call is still a good idea. You will be taking care of an emotional need that can be as strong as the physical need you have already taken care of.
