Well my ex and I both lasted around an hour and a half our first time together (we were both virgins and we lost it to each other) and it really didn’t hurt for me either just for a few seconds ---

Maybe fifteen minutes? I wasn’t using a stopwatch. I take a long time, always have - now with my fiancée I can go as long as she wants. I beat it like a rented mule so it’s probably just used to abuse. ---

My first time was a neigbor lady, she was about 36 I was about 14. I lasted maybe 3 seconds. ---

How long do virgin (guys) last during sex? The very first time the guy has had his rocket on the launch pad, measuring from the moment the countdown actually begins, to the time it blasts off? Anywhere from 30 seconds to a minute. And no, it doesn’t bother me in the least bit – if I’m having sex with the guy, I like him and I’m not disappointed if he blasts off quickly; I mean, it flatters me in a way. I’ve found that most guys I’ve gone to the launch pad with have quick blastoffs the first time I am with them, even if it’s not their first time to the launch pad. I’ve never had any problem getting those quick-blastoff guys’ rockets stood back up on the launch pad for a new countdown sequence. The second blastoff always takes longer to achieve (which gives me time to get plenty of enjoyment out of the rocket). ---

I agree that it will vary. The guy’s psychological state can be anywhere from “This is going to be the best moment of my life” to dreading the first time, and there are factors like how sexually potent the guy imagines himself to be. ---

It’s kind of interesting to see the extent to which the same people not only answer the same question with roughly the same answer but also tend to formulate their answer in the same words using the same metaphors and similes and stuff! ---

I’m pretty sure it was within 10 seconds, and I shot straight up and hit the ceiling. Yes, it was dripping down on us. The next time we were together, he had painted a bulls-eye on the ceiling, centered on my cum stain. For years after that, he told people the bulls-eye was there first.
