What you mean exactly by "does it work"? My boyfriend teases me a lot. Sometimes when we're making love and he's in a dominating mood that night, he'll bring my close to orgasm and then stop. Over and over and over, he'll do this. It always leaves me begging for more and when he finally allows me to climax, it's very intense. So I guess you could say it "works", whatever that means.

I do this while using a vibe sometimes, and I think it works well. It sort of "resets" your nerves for a few seconds each time you stop.

For me - stopping just prior to orgasm can help prolong my erection. However if she's close to orgasm - that's the last thing she wants me to do - so I understand your comment about it being annoying.

We've addressed this issue by always allowing her to orgasm 1-3x before intercourse - then if she has another it's a plus.

As a guy and only capable of having a single orgasm per session. Coming close to orgasm and stopping several times increases the intensity of the final event. If I orgasm at the first sign - it may be just a dribble, but if I go through a few cycles I can shoot long and hard - makes me feel young again!

BTW - a little anal play makes it even more intense!

It can also be called edging--yes, it does make your orgasms a lot more intense, but you have to be in the right mind set or you will get very irritated or frustrated. I look at it as a prolonging game, the longer I can go, the better it feels.

Yes it works amazingly! and the orgasm at the end is usually in my experience 2-5x stronger and longer.. I usually ejaculate a fair bit more too. I have used edging to last for hours at times.
