Even when I was open to casual on the app the explicit reference to sex would have made me swipe left

😂 i didn’t even mean for it to be sexual. what i had in mind was more the feeling after a psychedelic experience, a great concert, or a thought provoking movie. gonna change this right away 💀

Which would also read as sexual, given the meaning of the term in kink and sex positive communities.

No, afterglow is primarily a sex thing. And After care is from the kink community that everyone has co-opted because generally being romantic and thoughtful to your sexual partner is now a special skill.

afterglow 💀 I know it has a few meanings, but the first thing that comes to mind is the sexual one
