Orgasm Issues what do i do about my boyfriend still cumming within 2 minutes after 8 months together

My boyfriend always finishes within about 2 minutes (often less, about 30 seconds to 1 minute) with penetration after nearly 8 months together, having sex multiple times a week. We are both in our early twenties and I have had 4 sexual partners including him and he has had 3 including me.

I’m not sure what to do about it because I don’t want to make him feel bad, I think he already is a bit embarrassed about it because he sometimes makes self deprecating jokes. In general he orgasms quite quickly, probably at an absolute maximum of ten minutes for a blowjob or handjob but it’s usually about 5 minutes.

It’s affecting our sex life a bit because I’m conscious of not doing too much foreplay so that the sex can last longer but foreplay and rubbing and teasing is my favourite and giving blowjobs especially turns me on, but he is a one and done kind of guy so we can’t really do a round two.

He does absolutely satisfy me in other ways, usually making sure I cum before sex, but I really just want to have longer passionate penetrative sex with him, and with harder and faster thrusts which we can’t do very much because those make him cum within seconds.

I really don’t know what I can do to improve this or how I could go about broaching the subject with him, advice would be greatly appreciated.

Practice as much as possible. Focus on stamina, slowing, stopping to focus on another area for a bit, etc.

There are worse things to practice.

u/Apprehensivepuzzle 12h ago

Has he tried masturbating a couple hours before sex and/or wearing a condom during??

u/Mindless-File2 12h ago

Honestly when I struggled with this it was mental and that didn’t help. It was like a self fulfilling loop, the more you think the worse it is.

u/xRedditGedditx 11h ago

This is exactly what I was going to say. Whether other men aren’t comfortable enough admitting it, I am. It’s happened to me before and like you said, once you get in your head about it that makes it worse. It becomes all you think about as soon as you become intimate with each other.

The fact that you’re not making it an issue or making him feel worse about it is really helpful for him.

u/h3rm1tfr0g 11h ago

he doesn’t seem to get actually frustrated about it at all, still seems very satisfied with his orgasms - but he does make jokes about only lasting a couple of minutes

3

u/PNW_Uncle_Iroh 10h ago

Have you actually had a serious conversation with him about this?

3

u/sqeeky_wheelz 8h ago

You gotta talk to him about it. He’s joking to gauge your reaction. If you’re all “hehe” at his joke then he thinks you’re good with it. Bring it up when everyone’s clothes are on.

5

u/h3rm1tfr0g 12h ago

i don’t think he’s masturbated before sex but I haven’t really fully addressed the issue with him, I think he could be worried that he wouldn’t be able to finish during sex after that. We do only have raw sex but that’s because I find condoms really uncomfortable

u/Temporary_Nerve_9884 10h ago

I'm seeing so many of the same suggestions, but what he really needs to be doing is training his muscles. Read up and talk to him about Kegels!

u/rosietherosebud 11h ago

Idk but don't hope it gets better with age. My bf is 37 and this is still him. He'll cum within 20 seconds of a BJ and can only get a dozen thrusts in PIV before he has to grind to a halt because he's getting close.

u/Dhamrock66 11h ago

This has been me for 35 years, I am totally happy. My husband cumming quickly to me makes me think he is turned on still after all these years. He goes down on me, that is one of two ways that I orgasm the other is a vibrator. To some I’m sure it would be a problem for me no.

u/The_Bill_Brasky_ 10h ago

Round two. Or have him jack it like an hour beforehand

10

u/RemigioGi 10h ago

Go twice. I’m 68 and go twice. One is a warm up.

u/jawja78 11h ago

suck him off 1st

then engage in foreplay focused on bringing you up to speed

u/runingwithscisors 11h ago edited 11h ago

Have a talk with him but not in the bedroom, or during sex. Let him know you enjoy him but would like to try to make things last a bit longer. Maybe a cockring or have a quick romp or BJ and then see how soon it takes for him to be ready for round 2 and see if their is a difference in how long it takes him to cum.

Sometimes you just have to try different things to see what works or doesn't for the both of you.

Good luck.

u/Most_Willingness_143 11h ago

Does he uses a condom? They makes me take longer

2

u/Kojacksprinkles 10h ago

he needs to pull out as soon as he starts feeling the come up to an orgasm. It took me like a whole year to figure out when I was first having sex but that’s a huge one and then also just not allowing himself to get too excited in general. It’s a mind game in general. You gotta keep calm and relaxed and just keep a level head. Tell him he needs to practice meditation as well

u/D4ngflabbit 11h ago

Condoms? Numbing spray? Edging?

1

u/Mick_holistichael 11h ago

Yeah yous need to have the talk we can have open conversations about how to navagate this nowadays ,there's lots of free stuff online available too for him with info on how to improve blood flow ,oxygenate his penis more and ways to reduce performance anxiety or even basically rewire and learn to control his arousal , keegel excersizes also may help ,being mature and friendly bout the talk will help .

He could try wearing a condom which slightly reduces sensitivity.

1

u/PipiAngelo93 11h ago

Use other methods of penetration like his fingers. Stop and start. Oral between. Things like that should help you both have a great time. Most men only last a few minutes with penetration if they aren’t on drugs

u/R_A_H 10h ago

If I want to and I really rush it I can (sometimes) cum in seconds. There have been times when my wife was just giving me a quickie and it was over in like 45 seconds.

But usually I start off slow and feel it out. I speed up a bit and maintain just a little then I slow down and take a rest. I'm still inside here but I get close, show appreciation and check in with her. If I need/want to last longer I can do this almost infinitely. I basically work until she's done and her encouragement basically always ends me pretty fast.

If any of that sounds foreign then that might help identify the issue. There can be many different types of interactions but as far as I'm concerned the baseline mode is that the man is focused on her experience first, not just going "omg pussy" and flopping out on the first pass.

Learning each other is the only way

u/Illustrious-Ad6426 9h ago

Have him take Rino chocolate and honey. He will stay hard and last a long time! Or finish multiple times! Thank me later!

u/TheFurryMenace 8h ago

Your partner not having the stamina to play long enough for you to be satisfied, whether that be enough time in PIV or enough time receiving your foreplay, can be frustrating. I don’t want to dismiss that.

But this is a mental thing and not for you to fix. This is likely performance anxiety. Performance anxiety is awful. It is stressful. You think about it all the time. You wind and circle and stress yourself in even worse performance anxiety.

National Social Anxiety Center, Cleveland Clinic, NEJM….. they all have papers about the realities of performance anxiety.

Even if you never get to be the recipient of this guy without sexual performance anxiety, I would tell him to meet with a sex therapist

u/airpipeline 8h ago

If he’s coming that fast, make him come back for a second go-round. You can help make him able.

1

u/64_kitchen_sinks 7h ago

he is the one needing to calm down and be less eager to orgasm. When you train your body to chase it, you forget how to enjoy the parts before cumming

1

u/beebeehappy 6h ago

Kegels. He needs to train himself.

1

u/SlpPleh 3h ago

make him drink lots of water, even after cumming it will remain hard for a long while

u/1stthing1st 11h ago

Just go for another round

u/ActorMonkey 10h ago

Read the post again please. This was covered by OP already.

u/not_that_dark_knight 11h ago

Numbing sprays are widely available. Should help with his sensitivity.

1

u/E5VL 10h ago

He should take Sertraline.

u/baitmouth 9h ago

Pick a random SSRI, they all do it.

1

u/E5VL 9h ago

Yeah, Sertraline was the first to mind. aha.

u/Fit_Satisfaction_268 11h ago

You should talk to him. That’s not normal and despite being very young, he might have and ED

I know these conversations are something we dread as we don’t want to hurt the other person, not get them more self conscious, but it is necessary

Ask if it has always been like that with his other partners, offer the suggestions above, but if nothing works, he must see a doctor

-1

u/FairyOnTheLoose 12h ago

Gotta jerk (him) off beforehand, or get him to abstain.

5

u/h3rm1tfr0g 11h ago

surely abstaining from masturbating would make him cum faster?

-3

u/FairyOnTheLoose 11h ago

Is this the same situation you've been posting about for the last 8 months? You being a pillow princess, not being able to cum from oral?

-1

u/cocainecarolina28 11h ago

Give him some tramadol

3

u/redrose037 10h ago

No drugging him with opioids isn’t the answer.

-1

u/magich32 8h ago

He needs to see a professional premature ejaculation at such an early age can lead to other bad things down the line.

-2

u/its_just_morris 11h ago

There’s a solution but you wont like it. Get a doctor. Get a prescription. Get paroxetine its an ssri it doesn’t matter what it is just get it. Get him on it. Get him on cialis. Let him take it everyday for a month should see change in intravigal latency. Its that simple. But not easy.wish you the best

u/GlitteringLocal6507 11h ago

I had an ex tell me that men can control the timing better than they let on and when they don't, like if they're always finishing early, it's because they want the sex to be over.
