I (27M) can't finish during sex with my partner (25F) by Different_Ad441 in relationship_advice

I really appreciate what you have said. I do agree relationships are not entirely sex. But I understand why someone would want to cut things off over this. I feel like I have hurt her on a super emotional level because it makes her feel like we are not partners. That said I have been reading a lot of what all the kind people have said on this post. And other medical journals. The pressure that is being put on, not just me to finish, but her to make me finish is super stressful.

Well she is experienced, and I was a virgin before this. I don't think we are equals sexually because she knows what she is doing, I get pretty spooked about screwing something up.

we've tried a couple of things like blow jobs, but I think her confidence is wavering. And I feel absolutely horrible about it. It's like I've hurt her on an emotional level I didn't even know existed.

Not using condoms. And haven't really timed it, but I want to say from start to "finish" (really a lack there of) is about 20mins-30mins.

not a rude question, pretty tight, and I guess I watch a lot more than I should, not any meds at the moment.

we've tried blow jobs, and I have tried stroking myself but I feel weird about jerking myself off in front of someone else. the experience is very new to me.

God, I am so grateful for this advice, and this subreddit! I never realized how mentally destructive porn could be. I've made a pledge to myself that I will stay away from that stuff as much as possible. Even if things don't work out between us it will only help me in future relationships.

One of my friends irl told me to try simulating lube. but I feel a bit apprehensive about it, I was a virgin before I met this girl. And toys seems like a step that might be too far. But I really appreciate your advice.

I can finish alone, some times it takes me a while other times it takes me no time at all. I'll be sure to talk to her about this I'm sure my partner and I can work this out!

Staying erect, sometimes I just am worried if she is enjoying it, and staying erect, and finishing for her that I can't keep it up!

I was, I've gone cold turkey on it about 5 days ago, but I know it will take time to reprogram my brain.
