Are you sure you feel really depressed, or just a bit down? And is it just for a minute or two? Because there's always a low after a high.

LOL I'm exactly the same. Okay laughing doesn't really help but I just find it a strange random topic... and I laugh out of insecurity I guess. =/

Dunno what to do about it, I'm usually out of the 'depressed' state in 10 minutes and back to my usual 'down' self.

Like I said, there's ALWAYS a low after a high. Any sort of high. Think of it as a sex hangover.

I like the afterglow of sex (just lying there next to my girlfriend). My girlfriend does too. ie neither of us feel low after an orgasm. Tired maybe but not low or depressed.

I know the feeling, but it doesn't always occur. In my case its seems situation dependant.

When it does occur, it either hits me as a general (but slight and short lived) depression or an almost guilt like feeling.

What if you do hold your girlfriend tightly? surely that's enough to keep you above the surface and glad?

When "in love" it hasn't occur. Only with an ex (knowing things wouldn't be fixed in the morning) or on dodgy ground such as with a friend (**** should I have just done that) etc...

Contraception was used (and there are no mini-me's running around). Realisation was the conclusion I had come to. I am still speaking to/am very good friends with all those concerned, so no real harm came.
