It happens from time to time because some of the ladies here, not naming names of course, have filthy minds!

It's nice to be a member of this "club"! LOL! And yes, there are some times when I want to just say, "Stop, please! No more! Finish so I can go to sleep!!" LOL!
Not that I'm complaining though . . .there's always the other problem. :)

OMG you don't remember??? Not someday TODAY!!!!! Must read now. lol

I'm not complaining either! I didn't realize how many bad lovers I've had until I met my hubby. :)

LOL! Considering I was 17 when hubby and I began dating, I can believe it. All my priors were inept teenagers.
Some days I think how nice it would be to have one now though . . .to mold and all. IF I didn't have hubby of course! LOL!!

ROFLMAO!!! Kudos to you DG! And Mandy! And your husbands, lol! Usually, after 30min I can't anymore, lol...
I'm in a different situation (not the opposite, just different).. my bf must be in his prime or smt (26?), cause he can literally start over 5 minutes after the previous round, and easily over 5 times a night (and not quickies, lol)... BTW, does anyone know if this is normal??? :-D
Which is why I'm thrilled he's at the army till next week, lol... I can sleep!

At 26, yeah it's normal. Mine is 36 and after one round, he's pretty much done for unless we wait a bit. Five minutes these days, nahhh . . .Back at 26 though, 2 minutes and he was raring to go! LOL!!
Gosh . . .I love that man!!

Sounds like a great husband:-) And relationship:-)

Hubby has no refractory period (meaning, he stays up even after climax) and he's 50. Yup, you heard that right. He's 50 and basically can keep it up after an orgasm. That's how he's able to make love for hours.
He says it's a matter of mind over matter...that when he was young, he trained himself to keep going even if there was hypersensitivity after an orgasm and now it's not uncomfortable.
I've been with this man for over 10 years and I still can't believe it.
