As I wonder what will happen in 2006, one thing seems certain: my sexual stamina will be less than it once was. I am sitting here on a night of revelry baring my soul for friends and trolls alike, so please help me with your best advice, some sympathy, or just a nice funny post to cheer me up.
My story is quite simple, really. Most of my life I have been a runner and that has given me better than average stamina. When I was in college, I used to scoff at the guys who bragged about making love to Ravel's Bolero because it was only sixteen minutes long. I was never satisfied unless my lover and I had made love through at least two Moody Blues albums, three if we were really on a roll. My passion for extended sex continued into adulthood.
For many years, my standard was to put on a Verdi opera (usually Rigoletto) just before insertion and time my climax for the finale of the last aria. As I grew older, my stamina increased along with my running mileage. A thirty-mile-per-week guy in college, by my mid-forties I was closing in on 45 miles in each week of running. Likewise, my stamina in bed was improving and I graduated to Wagner's operas. My favorite was to make love though the entirety of Siegfried, with a running time of nearly 4.5 hours.
To celebrate turning 50 a few years ago, I went into intensive training. My running work focused on speed, primarily to build up the strength in my hamstrings and glutes. In bed, I had set a nearly impossible goal: to fuck for the entirety of Wagner's Ring Cycle. That's four operas totalling just under 16 hours. Within 9 months I felt that I had achieved the proper level of conditioning, and so with a willing partner and a twelve-pack of lube, we set out to make our mark on the history books of sexual stamina.
I'll be modest and simply say that yes, I reached my goal.
In the last few years, though, I've noticed a dramatic downturn in my stamina and I hope that all of you patient and wise How To people will be able to help me out. About two years ago I underwent arthroscopic knee surgery and had to significantly reduce my running. A year ago more knee injuries forced me to hang up my running shoes for life. I went into a severe depression for several months after that but now I am fully recovered.
But my stamina has not recovered. In fact, most recently I could hardly last for the length of Beethoven's piano concerto #5 ("Emperor"). I still go to the gym regularly and my weight has not changed so while I may not be quite as fit as I was in my marathon running days, surely the reduction in fitness can't be the source of this dramatic and troubling condition.
What am I to do? I can no longer last more than 45 minutes during my first sex act of the night and thereafter can barely hang on for an hour. I am desperately afraid that my lover will soon reject me for a younger man.
What advice can you give me? Please, I look at 2006 and all I can see is loveless nights of mere half-hour masturbation sessions.
