Your g/f friend needs some hygiene lessons. We all have aromas but she either is not keeping things clean or she has a low grade infection. Those parts need to be well washed twice a day and a little touch before activity is encouraged. Foul smell is usually not simply her but indicates the possibility of a bacterial infection. For that, she needs to see a doctor.

Performance ability in men varies. The typical "act" lasts between 3-13 minutes according to interviews with women.

Believe me, solving her smell problem is the greater issue here.

I find that if I think about sex all day, I get tensed up and don't perform as well as a spur of the moment kind of thing. Maybe try not thinking about performance, and just having fun?

I agree, and have stated repeatedly that when a couple wishes to engage in oral and/or anal stimulation, bathing first is a definite must do.

Now, having said that, do you think this is the problem or is it just her natural aroma that is getting to you? Like her "juices" that can be an acquired taste, so too can be her fragrance.

> 1)So usually I can go for about half an hour to forty-five minutes no problem. But the past few times I haven't been able to last longer than 5 or 6 without having to pull out and cool off.

The subject of prolonged intercourse has been discussed many times and there is a Sticky post on the matter, also. If by "go" you mean humping away for forty-five minutes then you are not using the most practical or ideal method. Why? Many women report that if intercourse lasts longer than about ten minutes they become SORE, bored, and, tired. If you want to prolong intercourse, a better approach is to do it in stages with lots of making out in between.

> But the past few times I haven't been able to last longer than 5 or 6 without having to pull out and cool off. Then for the rest of the session I have to use the stop start technique.

Believe it or not, this is actually a pretty good method and is just what I suggested, above. Include some necking and petting when you are out and you're on the right path!

> Any reason I lost my touch?

You have not lost your touch. You just have to embrace and adopt a more practical method.

> My girl is out of town for a few days and I want to make up for the past few times when she gets back. Any ideas?

YOU BET!

Please look through the Index and read the different articles on how to make out. It's not all about pounding away and lasting a long time. More to the point, making out has more to do with the emotions and the preparation of the body for an orgasm (Making out) and there is much you can learn in order to make her return memorable and mind blowing. This information can be used each and every time you make love. Do these things and learn to do them well and you will be well on your way to becoming a great lover. Any guy can put P into V and thrust away, however, it is the man who prepares the way (emotionally, intellectually, and physically through words and deeds), first, devotes lots of time to the build up of excitement, anticipation, ardor, and tension, while showing is partner how much he cares for her in the process that will score the most points.

Making love is not what we do to each other. Making love is what we do with and for each other. It is a partnership. Explore and learn together.

> Well it wasn't just straight humping for 45 minutes it was stop and start. But the way it is now after a couple of minutes i have to stop every few strokes....It just feels like I've lost all means of control.

Please read this. If the two of you practice the exercise that is described you should gain the control in a short amount of time.

Please reread my earlier post. Really foul odor or flavor is indicative of an infection. Very few women would have such a strong aroma right after bathing.

If you do not resolve this issue, your lasting will become irrelevant.

I am experiencing a terrible case of deja vu right now. If everything gets washed properly, there will be almost no smell. I mean I spent the night with a friend of mine. She worked an 8 hour shift and when she got home, she washed her face and her crotch and I went down on her a while later. Basically I tasted the salty sweat on her neck and stuff but her vagina had no flavor and no smell. And she was extremely wet as well.

As long as she is keeping good hygeine she shouldnt smell terrible. Maybe enough to get you hard but not overpowering.

Well unless you can find a way to get a really close mutual friend to suggest something like seeing a doc to make sure she doesnt have anything, then all you can really do is be totally honest. Dont be a jackass about it, just honest!

Turn this thing around. Women are often aware of a male partner's prostatitis before he is. Simply because we end up with the foul semen - on us or in us.

Would you want her to tell you? How would you want to be told?

Lol I know how they probably dont want to be told. I performed oral on my first gf like 3 or 4 times and couldnt stand the hair or the smell/taste, so I just started politely refusing and one day she was like wtf? And I just told her that I noticed I would get a sore throat after (really did) and she just told me to suck it up if I wanted to be sucked off again...

Needless to say that ended with one of the most epic arguements ever.
