Would you be disappointed if your girlfriend could not have an orgasm?

Contributor: Ella71 Ella71
I want to know if a man would be disappointed with his girlfriend if she couldn't reach orgasm. This can mean she never orgasms, or rarely does or needs clitoral stimulation as opposed to just penetration.

No. My beloved had never had an orgasm when we met. She squirms so badly at times that it can be difficult to 'finish' satisfying her and she's even managed to break restraint and, in turn, lose the sensation that was building up.

My solution: invest in better restraints.

I'm always disappointed when it doesn't happen. I don't really care how it happens, but I feel like I've let her down when I don't "return the favor".

Well what if it's not your fault? Your answer makes me feel like you'd be disappointed in yourself, but how would you feel about her? Would you think there is something wrong with her?

I guess I'm more disappointed with the circumstances than with myself (never her) when it doesn't happen. I realize that I have a finite amount of control over whether she has an orgasm. Sometimes I can do everything right and it won't happen...but that doesn't mean I have to like it or feel I could have done more.

Would I think something was wrong with her? Perhaps, but only if there was a suggestion beforehand that something was amiss (maybe she really didn't seem into it from the beginning, maybe she had too much alcohol, etc.). If she otherwise seemed really into it, was clearly aroused, and it still didn't happen, I wouldn't assume that something was wrong with her.

Of course, I can only speak from my experience. A different set of circumstances with a different woman might result in a different thought process. For example, if I was to be with someone of, say, your age, and she had the difficulties having an orgasm that you mentioned in your original post, I'd probably chalk it up to her age/experience more so than anything I was doing or any "problem" she might have. It takes a while for someone - man or woman - to figure out what works best for them, and even then, everyone is wired differently. For that matter, it would depend on the length of the relationship as well. I'd be more likely to think there was something "wrong" with someone I'd been with for years than someone who I had slept with only a few times. Not only does it take time for someone to understand his or herself, it takes a while for one's partner to figure out it out as well.

And to clarify, by "wrong", I am assuming you mean some physical or mental issue that is making attaining an orgasm difficult. I'm not looking at it as a character issue or having an issue to do with how a relationship is going. Those can certainly play a role in the issue you brought up, but my response was not in reference to that.

Since I know that I can get the wife off, yes I would be disappointed. It would mean that I did not do my job or she has lost interest in sex with me. Either way it would be a real bummer.

Since my GF is extremely orgasmic, yes it may bother me. I selected Depends since it has happened in the past from just oral and sex, but we always seem to still get her to orgasm with our toys and some rough play...

I've never orgasmed with my partner and I worry that he feels disappointed and frustrated about it. I can get myself off easily in front of him, but he's never been able to do it for me. There was one time with the magic wand, but I'm still not convinced what that was.

I would be disappointed, for sure. It is important for me that she climaxes and even when she says it is not important to her I still feel like I have not held up my end of the bargain if she does not.

It can happen either through oral or penetration, but I like for it to happen for her. she is nice to me so I should be to her, you know?

If we are just having a quicky, then she doesn't always orgasm. But if we are having a regular sex session, then I do feel bad when she doesn't orgasm. It has rarely happened and usually because she was stressed about something, but I can usually get her off multiple times. (Although I think she only counts the gigantic multiple g-spot/vaginal earthquaking ones, because I have seen the physical orgasm signs plenty of times and she hasn't included them in her count.) I have gotten to the point where I know it isn't my fault and I don't feel guilty about it, just disappointed that it wasn't as fun for her as it was for me.

Yes, but fortunately my wife has learned to orgasm, which makes sex much more fun and satisfying for both of us.

My fiance gets really disappointed and upset with himself when he cannot make him cum. It's hard for me not to make him feel that way because I get frustrated when I'm "right there" but can't get over what seems like a mountain to orgasm. I hate pulling out toys during sex, and it seems to have become the only way I can cum in missionary with the male on top.

He almost went into tears once a year back because I didn't even want to have sex for fear of making him feel like he wasn't good enough. He is AMAZING at sex, I just have a very stubborn vagina/clitoris. It takes a lot of work.

We've managed to learn to stimulate me ahead of time in order to bring me to orgasm during sex, so everything has worked out. And if I'm frustrated, I'll wiat until he's gone or asleep and I'll finish off in the restroom unless he's still awake enough to help me finish.

No, I'm difficult so it would be silly. Besides, I enjoy the actual sex enough that I don't even care a lot of the time.

My wife takes longer than me so I usually start warming her up well before anything with me. Every once in a while she won't and it does make a man feel like he didn't do it right. She says she doesn't care but she said she didn't want a birthday gift once too.

If i were a man, I guess it would depend on circumstances. Some medications, depression and other factors can easily eliminate/reduce orgasms. Orgasms start in the mind, and it could be something simple as that maybe she has lots on her mind. And also 80% of women require clitoral stimulation to orgasm.

It would really be a problem for me. I have so much invested in helping her orgasm that if I started to fail - I'd have to figure how to get back on the right track.

This part:or needs clitoral stimulation as opposed to just penetration. describes about 80% of the female population. Most women do not easily or ever orgasm without clitoral stimulation.

Few women only orgasm from penetration alone. I only can if I have already had a clitoral or blended clit/G Spot?A Spot Orgasm.

I would not want a man to feel bad because I usually don't have my first orgasm from just penetration. My Man knew from the beginning most women need more and has always done whatever it takes.

If a woman never orgasms, professional help probably should be sought.

We had to stop looking at it as "He will make me come." and start saying and thinking "He will help me find my orgasm, by any means necessary."

I don't care HOW I come, but I prefer him there. I don't and wouldn't sneak off alone and have my orgasm after we had sex. Sometimes it just doesn't happen, but before we give up, we try about everything. If it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen. But, he doesn't feel that introducing toys is a bad thing. He wants me to feel good, as as long as he is on the other side of that toy, it the best!

When he's using a toy on me, it's an extension of him so it's all good. He feels badly if I don't come, but he doesn't blame himself. Mainly because he puts as much work as possible into doing whatever it takes. (Unless it's the rare night when he falls asleep, but, hell I'll wake him up....)

I know that my fiance feels disappointed in himself when I don't finish. But, sometimes it just won't happen. It has nothing to do with his skills or effort hes putting in. Some days are just better than others for mind blowing O's. He on the other hand rarely finishes during intercourse, which by now I'm use too and don't take any offense. Sometimes I admit I've felt it was somehow my fault even though logically I know that it's just him and has nothing to do with me.

I feel the same way i want my wife to get as much out of it as i do. But sometimes its best to let it go and try the next time. Alot of the time it means she was distracted or uncomfortable.
