Hiking Orgasm
I have been having a tough time lately. Nothing I can really put my finger on, I have come on here a few times trying to talk about it but it always comes out all wrong and when I hear myself I sound very needy and obnoxious, which actually makes me feel worse because I can’t express myself and I don’t want to come across as needy and obnoxious. I’m pretty sure that I’m just reacting to being extra super busy this month. I have had extremely busy weekends every weekend since Thanksgiving - things have been just jammed packed, running from one event to another! I think I’m just overwhelmed and need some “me” time.
So in attempt to get that me time I’m craving, I went hiking today. Which brings me to the subject of this post. I don’t know a lot about orgasms, they fall in the category of “sex” which I know little about, but from what I have seen in movies/TV and read in books it’s something is suddenly very pleasurable and exciting and you have to work to get it.
When I go hiking I sometimes start out dragging - it’s hard hauling myself up the side of a mountain and often the conditions aren’t favorable. I don’t always enjoy it much at first. Then after a 1/4 or maybe a 1/2 mile depending, something happens, it’s like happiness explodes inside me! I just feel like I could hike for miles! I LOVE being out there, it’s all wonderful and anything that was bothering me is just gone! I love the feeling of the sun on my face, the wind in my hair, the crisp mountain air in my lungs, and the rocks and dirt under my boots! It’s an amazing feeling! The happiness continues, usually, through the end of the hike and inevitably when I get back to the car I don’t want to go home - I want to hold on to the happy feeling. Generally on the way home the feeling shifts - I’m relaxed and content. By the time I get home I’m usually happily exhausted, yet content and happy!
I’m sure that this can be scientifically explained - the endorphins kicked in. However, I walk on my treadmill at home - sometimes with the same speed and incline as if I was on a trail - and I never get the same explosive happiness feeling that I get when I am hiking. There’s something extra exciting for me about being out in the woods!
I wonder is this explosive happiness what sexual people feel during sex? If so, I get now why so many people are so obsessed with it. I can’t imagine that I’d enjoy the feeling I get when I’m hiking if I was in bed, naked, sweating, with another person though, it would just lose a lot.
Whether or not it’s the similar what sexual people experience, it’s the perfect “cure” for me when I’m feeling like I have been feeling!
It does make me wonder if possibly there is yet another orientation: Hiker-sexual! LOL! :-)
