So, how long does your typical foreplay session last?
Is it long enough or too short for you?

It's usually an average of 21-30 minutes for us, but with a wide range (from 2 minutes of foreplay with quickies, to an hour or more when we have the time). It's usually sufficient to get me ready and mostly satisfied with the foreplay. But I'm greedy. I want an hour+ average. We both need to work on patience to get to that point, though.

Ours usually lasts close to an hour before we have intercourse. Usually we make each other cum at least once. I love long foreplay sessions.

Seriously the longest foreplay I have ever got was about 20 minutes (and that is generous). We rarely have any foreplay and when we do it is 30 seconds of nipple stimulation (which doesnt do much for me...) and off we go. I am usually wet often though. It's like my hormones are in overdrive or something so its not always necessary. Sometimes though...I thank the lord lube exists, amen!

Ours is usually somewhere around 20-30 minutes. But it could be anywhere from nothing to over an hour. It just depends on our moods and how much time we have. It also depends on how long I can last through foreplay before I need to hop on and go at it. LOL!

I LOVE long foreplay sessions. Drive me crazy for an hour before we get to it and I'm happy. My fiancee, on the other hand, doesn't need it. Five minutes of making out and she's ready. So we try to find something in the middle.

For us, it is about 20 plus min., I definitely try to achieve at least one orgasm prior to penetration, toys are a major assist. For a quickie, no foreplay, but a quickie, with lube, is better then nothing when I am running late and have to get up.

I know I'll probably be alone in this opinion, but I really like foreplay to be minimal. The main event is SO much better than anything else. I'm an immediate gratification kind of woman.

I'd have to say our is usually 21-30 minutes but it varies greatly. It depends on how long we have, where we are, and both of our moods. It's a consenual thing with us.

I really love taking a long time with various erotic massage techniques and toys. typical is about 15 minutes - but when we have more time i stretch it to 20+ minutes. For me it's not over until my lover has had her first orgasm - and more if she'll let me.

Our foreplay is usually an ongoing thing...a look, a touch, a whispered promise. It's amazing.

Foreplay in our house is usually "Get on the bed and spread your legs, slut." ~grin~

Though sometimes...

We don't divide sex into "foreplay" and "the action." We start out many different ways, from just dry humping, to outright oral attack, to just kissing to just making eye contact during the day or night. We will stop in the middle of PIV to have oral sex again, we may have anal at the end, or do that, and then wash up carefully, and return for more of other things.

I don't even really think of certain things as "foreplay" anymore, because we just do anything and everything in no order. We don't always "end" with PIV sex. I usually prefer to have my first orgasm first, because I'll have more as we do other things, but sometimes this doesn't happen, so sometimes, he'll just keep going after he's "done" until I get what I need or give up. Usually, though, we have no set way of having "sex."

My preference is for sex, anything and everything, to last 1 to 3 hours, but the of course, as we need to work, sleep, eat and take care of other things, we do have frequent "quickies."

Depends on what you call forplay. Lots of time my wife and I will sex text when she is on her way home from somewhere, this could last for hours sometimes. Then its really hot when she gets there.

Usually 10 to 20 minutes, though I honestly do need less than that until I'm ready to go.

Usually not very long. If we're both in the mood we don't really devote that much time to foreplay.

Depends. Sometimes there is no foreplay, other times it could be an hour or more if we are roleplaying.
