How do you feel about snuggle/cuddle time?
I need more of it in my life
What do you define it as?
Quiet time of non-sexual closeness--playing with her hair or holding her head against my shoulder.
Does it have to lead to something else?
No. Sometimes it follows something else or is a just the goal in itself. It is a safe space to just 'be' with each other.
How much snuggle time do you feel is important?
As much as both of us can stand. Like Tessa, there are times I get wiggy about my personal space but it comes down to what you need at the time.
Do you enjoy it?
Yep.
Do you feel it's importance is gender based?
Most women I've known have enjoyed cuddling to a greater or lesser degree.
Do you feel it's importance is role (Dom/Sub) based?
I found early on that it is really important for subs to feel close and safe after a scene. When I neglect that aspect of aftercare, they have a hard time reintegrating. I think we fail our partners when we don't allow for that time.
There are also times (with work or life stress) that the Dom/me needs snuggle time. Having open communication will make sure that everyone's needs for cuddling are met.
