I of course meant “not too difficult” above.

It’s not always like that, though. I’ve had a few partners who finished pretty quickly, and then got kinda bored with the whole affair. When they start looking at their watch, or say “So…you done yet?”, it kinda takes the fun out of it. In that case I’d fake it. The couple of times that’s happened to me, I just dropped the condom in the trash - I didn’t figure anyone is gonna be curious enough to go digging through the trash looking for evidence.

So what you’re saying \*\* blowero\*\* is that your partners are sometimes so bored that they are checking their watches and asking “So…are you done yet”.

Who’da thunk it?

My "problem " has always been that it’s **hard** for me to blow my wad while having intercourse or oral sex. Doesn’t matter if I use condoms or not. It got to be frustrating with my ex 'cause her focus was on my getting off, which led to some rather “heated” moments. Not heated in a good way either.

Yeah. I faked it once when a girl I was seeing couldn’t get my to go, EVER, and was feelings pretty distraught about it. She was REALLY tight and the condom on top of that just made it feel more like I had a rubber band around my cock then a pussy.

I faked it and it made her happy.

</div>

So how would you do that without a condom? Methinks the lack of physical evidence could be a problem.

Couple of times in the past. Haven’t had to with my wife, though.

Never. I think it’s dishonest and it vitiates the emotional intimacy and trust that makes sex such an amazing experience. I’ve had sex without reaching orgasm a few times, but I told my girlfriend the truth: sometimes Mr. Happy just doesn’t feel like cooperating – nothing against you personally. She was fine with it.

Well, not literally. I just meant that some people like it quick, and some people like it to last longer, and sometimes you have a discrepancy between two partners. But you needn’t worry, Mermaid - If I were with you (God forbid), it would be the first time in my life I wouldn’t even be able to get it up at all.😛 But I’m sure you have that effect on most men.

Never. I’m a terrible liar.

Besudes, if I don’t have an orgasm, the message isn’t “you’re not sexy”, it’s “you sure are sexy, but man, I’m drunk”.

Ditto.

Behave, **blowero**. That was uncalled for. Knock it off.

I’ve done it once or twice. There are times she wanted it so bad, and I was just too worn out.

Yeah, I faked once. Her and I had both had some alcohol (not drunk, just buzzed.) We went at it once, then again. The second time I was just too damn tired to keep going, so I faked it. I turned my bakc when I took off the condom and I don’t _think_ she caught on, but I have no idea.

I was just quoting the man directly. His words, not mine.
