Quote: Soon, nothing is happening to take me over the top, to make me pop. She is winding down, yet I am trying to climb to the peak. Any minute now, she gives me the look that says, "Are you going to be done soon? You're wearing me out."
Well, I can't speak for all girls but, as for me, once I've had the orgasm sex can become quite uncomfortable. I'm sensitized in that area but it is no longer in a pleasant way plus I start to lose moisture. When I was sexually active it could be VERY PAINFUL to me if sex went on very long after I had orgasmed.
Your wife may experience the same sort of discomfort and this may be reflected in her attitude. I had a girlfriend who had extreme marital problems due to this very issue. Her husband worked his little butt off getting her to that certain point and then he would start focusing on himself. Only problem was, he wanted it to turn into a marathon love making session while she was in terrible pain. She, of course just wanted him to be done, he ended up resentful over her attitude.
I still think you are dealing with a mechanical issue and not a feelings issue. Maybe you should discuss how your wife feels physically...is it uncomfortable for her after she orgasms. If it is the two of you could come up with some creative ways of helping you get what you need out of it also. Cathy
