Uh huh. My dude takes BP meds, too. And he's goin' pretty strong most of the time. We had more issues at first because he was a bit psyched out and nerves got to him, but he's gotten past that now. These days only once in a while do some prostate related discomforts put a bit of hitch in our giddyup. But he's almost 60, not like...40. So.

Well, I had to make the obvious joke, as was done by a few others as well. I don't want to jinx myself or whatever but I've been lucky-ish but I'm still in my 40's I think it's natural to have more issues as we get older. Meds can kill sex drive and boners for both men and women. I was over in the medical forum one day and I was gob smacked at how much medications some people are on. I take two BP meds at low-ish doses and I hate it, I hate taking any meds but it is what it is. The effects of unchecked high BP on the body isn't pretty.


Plus a couple of years ago a FB friend that I grew up with back when we were teenagers she had a major heat attack a couple of years ago and she was only 47 at the time. It woke me up a bit and made me go get checked out. Most of my numbers are all good and the one number that is a bit high would right itself if I can drop a few pounds.

I don't think the bottom-line issue is (was) even so much who can cut what hard substance with what, or what a guy "should" be able to do at a certain age. (Although "I can stay hard forever" was ubiquitous just as "people mistake me for my daughter's sister ALL the time, I look so young" is ubiquitous on CD. So yeah...)

I think the real, and largest, issue here is the guy not wanting to address it. I mean it doesn't sound like he is (was) willing to even speak to a doctor about it, much less make things pleasurable for both of them and "work around" it. That's really the bottom line here, because anybody can have such "issues" at one time or another, sure. Male or female. But...when they happen, do you both work on them, and continue to show your love? Or does one of you yell at the other that it's his/her fault and storm away smugly?

That latter just isn't a good sign.

"Should" he be able to use it to knock down stone towers with it into his 40s, while on meds, at 3AM, in the middle of a tornado, while rescuing 10 kittens from a tree? Who cares? He can't...but more importantly, he can't, and he's holding it against the OP (or was) and literally refusing to do anything about it. That's an issue that carries all through a relationship, not just during sex.

Naw, that's just boring logic. We want D jokes and innuendos and other nonsense.

Oh, well if it's immature jokes you want...you have come to the right place!

I wish I could go OT and just start (wait for it) hammering them out. Oops, never mind.

Of course. We can tit for tat all day long over here. All that crap does is show one's baggage and is a sad attemtp to passive aggressively lash out at others. The sex of the person doesn't matter and it doesn't do a damn thing to advance dialog, but such is CD and the age old war of the sexes, unfortunately.

I'll throw my lil' bit in here for what it's worth.
I have an aging prostate. Peeing can be an adventure! Shake, shake, shake, shake.......

OTOH-Sex is better then it's ever been. I have no issue with an orgasm that seems to take days....well, not days, but way longer then when the prostate was healthier. I'm not complaining!

You know, I am VERY glad you posted this.

We have (perhaps incorrectly) laid the blame for my boyfriend's marathon sessions at the door of his porn habit and habituations, but it could also very well be his enlarged prostate or blood pressure meds responsible for this. Days? Not quite. Longer than I will be able to do...pretty much anything except sleeping? Yeah. He's got WAY more "stamina" than I do.

And really it almost feels like an odd sort of karmic reversal. All those years and all those guys who got theirs and it was a good bet I might not get mine, and now? The only issue I guess, is me feeling confident that he is enjoying our activities. He says he is. I have to trust him. But being a woman where sex was defined as the man's endeavor to cross his own finish line, and when we got there, the act was done, for pretty much my whole life, has ill prepared me to wrap my head around all this.
