Calling out numbers during sex is about as hot as thinking about baseball scores to keep from coming.  Besides, what's wrong with, "Harder! Harder!" and "Faster! Faster?"

My tantrika does edging, and when I go from the plateau state and start to ramp up to the ejaculatory state, I just call out stop, and begin to do deep breathing.

After a few moments we start the whole thing over again.   I usually go through about a half dozen cycles over 20 minutes until I am ready to burst, usually over her gorgeous face, and much to our mutual delight.

 
A hand job can be pretty darn interesting in the right hands.

At the same time,  Happy  Holidays  👿

But damn is it so much fun. I hate and love it but I do truly enjoy the art of a good edging session. I tend to edge myself least 3-4 times minimum and do it before my sessions. I used to be all about instant gratification now I am more into the art of prolonging orgasm and the journey more than the destination. So far with this method I have been able to have stronger and more frequent orgasms...

Lucky me.  

I love to use edging in sessions as well, makes for a more interesting experience. But it isn't for everyone.

I don't like being told what to do during a bj! I like to be in  completely in charge during them and I'm very good at knowing when to back off and when to speed up. it's about reading the cues of your partner...and the more times you see someone, the better and easier it gets!

Didn't know what it was called then.  It was a long slow bbbj that built and ebbed, got intense and soft and wet all in cycles that kept me on edge where I actually felt like I was having multiple orgasms (without the ejaculation yet).  She kept me rock hard and writhing and moaning until I had to BEG her to let me cum.  When I did, it was a river of ejaculate down her throat that she swallowed and slurped and kept going til I was so drained and so hyper sensitive on my cockhead that I HAD to have her stop.  Its one of the few reasons I am still married.  Had some providers come close, but never had anyone other than her recreate that experience to that intensity and level.  Problem is, she does it only about once or twice a year.

...but I would find the calling out of numbers kinda distracting. Every provider that I've seen in the last few years has been able to read my cues, my body language and the actual words that I use to gauge where I am in the process of ramping up and down from arousal to near-orgasm and back down again.

Yes, edging can be quite fun -- the last session I had (second time with the same provider) led to her edging me with a combo of hand/BBBJ for the last 35 minutes of our session. This following 45 minutes of enthusiastic and energetic multi-position fun. Just part of the reason that I enjoy multi-hour playtime!
