Why is my boyfriend so tired after sex and how do I stop it?

It's very annoying because after sex he is always so tired. I don't know what to do about it and it's very frustrating. I have heard having sex at night is a good one because after you can both sleep but we never seem to have sex at night cause I'm hardly with him at night (since he lives with his parents and same with me and were hardly allowed to sleep over together at night). Please tell me what I should do?

  • Tell him to do more cardiovascular activities (ex, running bicycle, stairmaster) anything like that to increase his stamina, so that even after sex he will be less likely to become tired and sleepy, on top of that you can also ask him to take stimulants such as coffee, energy drinks, or even go so far as b12 capsules.

    But cut him some slack I'm sure he does a lot of work.

  • Do you know how much work we have to do sometimes in sex?

    • Very true...I agree though it's still frustrating.

    • Maybe he's not spending enough time with foreplay? Does he get you off though?

    • I know this is horrible but we hardly have time for foreplay. It's usually "quickies" we have cause of it being a time issue though were really trying to work at this.

  • unfortunately, there's nothing you can do! Apparently it's a technical thing, and guys can't help it. To be fair, all I ever want to do after sex is cuddle anyway, so me and my boyfriend often fall asleep afterward anyway, even during the day.

    But you could try doing it first thing in the morning? That works for some couples :)

  • Having sex is like a workout and obviously you can get tired from it however, it's does not necessarily mean that he is just tired he's also relax because he got what he wanted.

  • It's actually due to a chemical release in the brain. I forget which neurotransmitter is released but after "finishing" this certain chemical is released in a guys brain and it makes him tired.

    He really can't help it.

    • That I understand though even when he doesn't "finish" he is still tired and sleeps. Maybe due to the fact that it's very tiring for him :S

  • Date girls, or learn to live with it.

    • Not sure why I'm getting downvotes. Men get sleepy after orgasm. This is simply a biological fact.

    • Men get sleepy after orgasm. This is simply a biological fact. If you shared this answer but your original response was to tell her to go be a lesbian. So that's why you got down votes.

    There's nothing you can do about it.
