Yes, cuddling will usually get your normal, fully-functional male-type person horny.
The fact that he mentioned sex after cuddling for awhile, however, does NOT suggest he doesn't like the cuddling that much. Not. At. All.
However, for many (not all) guys, cuddling is just a wonderful physical thing to do together ON THE WAY to sex; in other words, for many guys cuddling amounts to foreplay and they might even feel frustrated if you see cuddling as just... well... cuddling for its own sake (which wouldn't be unusual at all for a gal).
Communication is this key here. I understand your difficulties with regard to a handy venue for sex, but you need to at least talk about how you each see cuddling. Communicating openly and explicitly about sex might be a new thing for you (and him too), but there's no time like the present to start communicating. What you may find is that you come to a compromise along the lines of you don't want him to always assume that cuddling is foreplay, and he doesn't want you to always assume that cuddling is just cuddling.
Communicate, communicate, communicate...
No cuddles from a girl are tops, and yeah it does inject a sexual emotion in with it at times, but that's just us men, we think everything can be sexual, and if an oppurtunity arrises, we will take it, its down to the women to cool us down and tell us what it is, because we want it to be sexual, but it doesn't always have to be, so cuddles can get a guy horny, so can a kiss, and so can a simple move from a girl, or a flash of her thigh, the possibilities are endless, so just take it that everything you do nearly can turn a guy on, even if your trying to be angry at him, its down to you to make it what it is, as he can take it as sexual anytime,x

What's Your Opinion? Sign Up Now!I like to cuddle, and I like it even if there's no way we can have sex. But that doesn't mean that it doesn't often make me WANT to have sex. That's normal. Thinking about sex when you're with someone you really like is NOT a bad thing; in fact that's the most appropriate time to think about it, don't you agree?
you know we, male, have more testosterone amount with higher level. it is easier and more often for us to get turned on by the looks or physical moves from opposite gender. more often also to think of sex. this is normal. if your boyfriend is turned on when cuddling you then he is normal too. as long as he loves you and is not being abusive then there is nothing to be afraid of. if he does not choose to have sex when cuddling then he is just someone who can control his lust or he has considerations before having sex.
It's goods pressed on goods. of course he gon think about it.
I have to be honest, if I dated a girl for a few months without oral or sex, I would be beyond horny around her. Especially if our two warm bodies were all nice and close to each other. I have had three girlfriends, none of any of us have had our own places, but we find all kinds of way to have sex regardless.
Cuddling, and sometimes just hugging can get me going.
