What does pillow talking mean?
In the world of love and intimacy
this expression is very useful and applicable. Pillow talking is an expression used to indicate a conversation between lovers wherein there's an air of love and intimacy.
So for lovers out there, you may use this expression
to define that kind of conversation you had with your partner. Typically, when couples are in the bed, they have cuddles combined with teasing to add up to the romantic ambiance. These teasing talks are considered a form of pillow talk.
Let me use a real-life and not so child-friendly example
I didn't see my husband for a month due to my out-of-town seminar which made me miss his warmth. So, we had a pillow talk and ended up achieving my ulterior motive for him (wink).
To sum it up,
use the expression 'pillow talk' to indicate the romantic conversation you had with your partner prior to intimate scenarios and even after.
A conversation between lovers
Have you ever laid in bed with your partner (girlfriend / boyfriend / husband / wife) and started a very personal and private conversation with them while laying? If you have, then you have experienced pillow talking.
Pillow talking is when you have a private conversation with the person you have a romance with while you are laying in bed. It usually happens after you spend exciting time with your lover in bed.
The conversation should be relaxed and the people having pillow talk are speaking about their private thoughts and feelings. This is why pillow talking is special.
It's not a phrase we usually say, but we know it happens.
If you want a clear example of pillow talking, you can listen to a song by famous former(old) One Direction singer, Zayn Malik called PILLOWTALK:

Lyrics from the song..
I'm seeing the pain, seeing the pleasure
Nobody but you, 'body but me
'Body but us, bodies together
I love to hold you close, tonight and always
I love to wake up next to you
Here, Zayn is talking about their bodies together, waking up together, holding each other very closely.
A lovely experience
If you have done pillow talking with someone, you will understand how sweet and special it is.
If you haven't and you want to try, don't worry! You will absolutely experience this.
In the meantime, let's enjoy the song by Zayn Malik 😉
