    @LovenLight: Well, that's... an unfortunate angle. Gotta say, it kinda ruins the picture. At least for a site like this.

    @DarrenWalker Well, It may not be a "like" but at least I got a comment on the photo. I guess I don't have to worry about this happening tonight!

    Hope this isn't too inappropriate!

    "Too"? Emphasis on inappropriate. [-Sid]

    I agree that questions asked in good faith should be respected. Flagged, reviewed, and removed the rest of the sweeping generalization. Concerned about erections, @Augustus1234 ? Worry about your own. [-Sid]

  • Hello there, this is an old thread but one that caught my eye the most. I’m fairly new to cuddling and I will admit that 80% of my sessions this has occurred. I respond differently, depending on the situation and the person. If I’m feeling the wrong vibe and it seems that it is intentional or the think it will cause me to get aroused, I give them ONE verbal warning and remind them of the boundaries we agreed on. Luckily this has happened very few times. And I’d like to know, from a man’s point of view, how would you like pros to address this without causing you embarrassment or shame? Here are a few things that have helped so far, let me know your thoughts:
    -I say that I need to use the restroom
    -I get up to drink some water
    -I switch our conversation and bring up family, parents/kids
    -I ask if he would like to put a pillow in between us
    -I suggest that we try my favorite cuddle position, “The Lap of Luxury”.

  • How do you address situations like these?
    I just ignore it and don't say anything.

    How would you prefer a cuddle partner to address it?
    Best he ignores saying anything too. Most keep calm or like move themselves differently to make it less awkward.

    Would arousal be an immediate stop for any of you?
    No. Unless they act on it. Otherwise, don't care whatsoever.

  • I think it happens to everyone at some point. It has happened to me. Luckily most of the women just laugh it off if they have noticed. They didn’t get pissed off or anything with me. I remember once she even laughed and said it’s cute and she’s honored. I’ll try to position myself hoping she doesn’t see it. One time she did feel it due to how close we were cuddling, and she said it was ok that I was aroused but don’t expect anything to happen which I didn’t. I have had someone ask me if I wanted to do something and when I said no I think it’s somewhat upset her because we got into a discussion as to why not but in the end, I think she was grateful that I was strong enough to not let anything happen. With her it would’ve ruined a good thing if we did go further. Nothing bad came of it I think she was more playing along with it than anything. It happens. I would say that I can remember it happened to me two or three times.
