Am I supposed to feel like this after sex?

I have been with my boyfriend over a year now, and we are very in love. We have recently made love for the first time, and many times since. We absolutely cannot get pregnant right now so we said we would stop the sex. But he knows just where to kiss me to get me in the mood, even if I've already told him no. So beforehand, and even during, I am happy with my decision to make love to him. But once it is over, I feel regret, and sadness even. It really makes me sad because he doesn't seem to want to have anything to do with me afterwards (meaning within the same night). He just turns on the tv and almost ignores me. If I try to cuddle with him or kiss him he doesn't cuddle or kiss back, but just ignores me. I don't know if this is normal or if this is how I'm supposed to feel. Thanks.

    Really typical response for quite alot of guys actually, particularly if he only really wants you for sex or doesn't love you as much as you think he does. There's the chance he's just poor at showing affection, but since you say you are very much in love I don't think this is the case. Communicate how you feel and what you want from him honestly. This is the key to sorting out relationship problems. If he constantly neglects what you want and clearly isn't trying, don't stick around. Be with a guy that respect you and does his best to show that he loves you and do the same for him. Life is too short to stick with people that don't pull their weight in a relationship without a very good reason.

    No that's not normal, that is abusive behaviour. In a loving relationship, both partners have to be willing to give and take love at any time, not just when they feel like it. I suggest you talk to him about it, and if it doesn't clear up then maybe you should find I new boyfriend :(

    Guys are like this, but its like he knows he can get it and doesn't have to work for anything now.

    Waiting a bit for sex is a great idea when long-term.

    If after he gets what he wants he ignores you, then you're his booty call girlfriend
