Sexual practice of holding off right at the point of ejaculation. To some people, edging makes the final climax much more intense.
I was jackin off with him and we were edging - fuck, we edged for about half an hour and I finally exploded, shot about a quart of cum!

When you tease a person just enough to frustrate them but not enough for them to explode at you. After they calm down you tease them even more bringing them right to their boiling point without pushing them over the edge. Proper edging over the course of a day leaves them mentally incapacitated and unable to summon the energy to explode.
I was edging Max so hard earlier when I told him he had a Red Bull addiction. I'm gonna edge him even more later today after he's forgotten about it.

Coming nearly close to climax or ejaculation,then purposefully stopping sexual stimulation in order to delay the same, so that the ultimate climax will be more intense. Unlike the other two definitions of "edging" so far included in this dictionary, it is not a practice necessary inclusive of masturbation ("wanking"), but is also practiced amongst homosexual (and, I suppose, heterosexual) partners/couples.
"As we were edging,every time I got close to cumming, I'd withdraw and wait until immediate passion passed, and he would do the same, until neither of us could tolerate it any longer, and we both shot our loads: mine in his mouth, and his on my abdomen.

Once you've gone over, you don't come back.
"The Edge... there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over. The others--the living--are those who pushed their control as far as they felt they could handle it, and then pulled back, or slowed down, or did whatever they had to when it came time to choose between Now and Later."

The practice by a man, with or without a partner, of maintaining a very high level of sexual arousal, as close as possible to full orgasm, over an extended period, without actually having a full orgasm. By using delicate control of stimulation and much will power to avoid a full orgasm, edging can include getting so close to full orgasm that ejaculate in significant quantity is released but the involuntary contractions do not take place (although up to say 3 contractions can be done deliberately each time to eject the released liquid in squirts, thus mimicking a real, but short, orgasm). This release, or "mimicked" orgasm, gives all the feelings of the start of a real orgasm but lacks the involuntary contractions, and it can be repeated several times until the supply of ejaculate is exhausted, or even beyond that point. After this "running dry", any real, final orgasm will be "dry" but otherwise normal. This amounts to multiple orgasms for men.
The edging session included four small or "mimicked" orgasms, with a combined total of 11 squirts, meaning that the powerful, 12 contraction final orgasm was virtually dry, and all this from one erection

For women also known as female orgasm denial - masturbating yourself very close to orgasm but not letting yourself go over into an orgasm (or in some cases deliberately giving yourself a ruined orgasm).

In women the effect over time, days, or even weeks, is to make you insatiably horny and absolutely obsessed with sex.
James recommended I try edging on his female orgasm denial blog on Tumblr. Three days in and now I'm a complete denial slut!
