Hello Forum Members,
I found this forum via Google, because I am in need of some advice for my relationship. I'll do my best to keep it short and sweet so no one has to read an essay on my issues. We've been together for a little over two years now. We just moved in with one-another about 3 months ago. Things are well, I help clean, cook, do my own laundry; which to me is great for a guy to do as I know many don't do those things especially a 22 year old. I can't toot my horn too much because there are definitely things I lack...
Basically the biggest problem in my relationship is my ability to perform in the bedroom. For the past year and a half I've had incredibly embarrassing and annoying premature ejaculation problems. I will only last MAYBE 2 minutes at best, if I'm not drunk, and just sober. My girlfriend has tried to be supportive and just tell me as long as I give it to her more often she won't care so much.
What has happened is this PME problem has totally damaged my sexual drive. I love my girlfriend so much, but whenever I think of having sex with her all I can think of is me not performing well enough to please her, and me ejaculating then left with a feeling of failure. It really has messed with me mentally and physically.
I've tried all sorts of things, I went on Google many times and looked up techniques. I basically tried them all, masturbating before sex, counting, controlling breathing, exercising the muscle by the gooch...nothing really seems to work. For a long time I became dependent on alcohol because it made me perform better, however now it's slowly not working anymore.
I rarely have sex with my girlfriend, on average MAYBE once a week...which is embarrassing to say. All I think about is letting her down by finishing way to quick, but really I let her down by not doing it so I feel I'm screwed either way...
What's happening because of my lack to have sex is she's becoming very insecure with herself and always treats me like I'm cheating or "up to something". Looking at girls, talking to girls, anything involving women she gets on my ass about it and it's very very annoying and unattractive.
Overall I hope and think if I can conquer my problem and become good in bed, and gain a sex drive again it will help with other relationship issues.
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Sorry this became such a long post...I just have no one to talk to about this embarrassing personal situation.
