Why does my boyfriend “tire out” in sex a lot faster than usual?

Question

let me explain...

when we have sex, we can usually go for about I don't know 25 minutes before we’re both tired. Yes this does include foreplay as well, not just the actual sex

moving on, I notice that the past few times me and my boyfriend have had sex, we’ve only been able to last about 10 - 15 minutes before he gets tired. This isn’t normal since we’ve been involved sexually with each other for the last 1.5 to 2 years

it’s also like my boyfriend runs out of energy faster than usual OR it’s like he ran a marathon before we have sex

any ideas? Please leave the comments mature and realistic, I am not looking for immaturity, sarcasm, or harsh answers

It could be due to stress lack of sleep, is he masterbating during the day, is he taking new medication or stopped one, has he become a pothead? It could also be diet change alcohol or a true medical issue like depression or blood presdure. Does it happen only during sex or does he get tired earlier in the day every day. There is always the least favorable answer and that is he is having sex with someone else. And again to you i say ignore the troll basement dwelling fucktards that just want to tear you down.

Is he in good health? Do you two ever go fro round two or three in an evening?

Are you two living together... if so how often are you having sex? Maybe he is masturbating a lot when you are not around?

Remember sex is not a race, take it slow, try sex at different times of the day. Have you tried some different positions to see if any are less strenuous?

Could be stress, lack of sleep, out of shape lots of things.  Have you asked him what’s wrong?

MrOracle · Answer

As others have said, anything that affects his body (exhaustion, lack of sleep, medications, illness, stress, poor eating habits, depression, hormone levels, etc.) can cause this.

We obviously don't know what exactly the problem is, but it's likely to be on that list.

Talk about it with him and hopefully you can figure out what it is, then find ways to work on it.

Sex is a vigorous physical activity. Let me put it this way, Michael Phelps probably hasn't had this issue do to his lifestyle. So maybe a few dunbells and a good pair of running shoes can solve your problem.

It's just a fitness thing, he also no longer needs to impress you seeing as you've been together for a while now.

Maybe it has nothing to do with energy, maybe he is trying to get it over with sooner.

Maybe he's out of shape.

He's getting older. That's really all there is to that

Sex alone doesn't just naturally make you fit if you have sex every like 3 days or something it would do nothing futness wise he could have got to a point where his level of fitness is slowly decreasing so he should partake in cardio vascular training and it should help

Out of shape? Maybe just spent that energy doing something else? Maybe let him know that you've noticed that change and see if he can tell you why?

Something is really weird here. I can't understand how someone fit and athletic is worn out from 15 minutes of sex and foreplay

Possible issues are the wrong time of the day, digestion in full action (up to 1-2 hours after eating), health issues like low blood pressure or low sugar level. Maybe drugs he is taking? Medication or something. Is he vegan?
