Do guys get emotionally attached from having sex?

Question

As in, when you have sex with your girlfriend, does this make you feel an emotional bond to you? You know that with women, there are these hormones that set off and we end up feeling closer on an emotional level etc etc from having sex. Is this something guys experience too, or is sex, sex and love, love? Do you fall more in love with your woman, the more you have sex with her?

My guess is that women are more exclusive about their emotional attachment than guys.

Many women, when they get emotionally attached to a guy, feel the need to withdraw from other guys. I'll do this to make a relationship work, but I never, ever have a *need* to do it. I'm comfortable, even happy, with multiple, simultaneous emotional attachments.

Yes, yes, YES, absolutely.  Maybe to a lesser extent than girls, but guys absolutely do get attached with sex too, especially in a committed relationship.  Sex is a very emotional thing for many guys.

We do get attached, depends on the girl and how long we've been dating her, or the closeness of the relationship. For the most part, we don't get attached as easily as women, but it does happen.

If he is deeply in love with the girl he just had sex with, then it is definitely an emotional feeling. He will be back asking for more. If he just did it for the hell of it... not emotional at all.

No, I can have great sex just fine without any emotional bonding.  Just because I have sex with someone doesn't mean ill get all gushy and emo about it, or even have a love thing going on. Sex does not equal love...simply put!   Keep trying girls! It takes more than a p**** to catch this cat!
