Why do I feel offended my BF wants to take an enhancement pill?

Question - (24 July 2019) 10 Answers - (Newest, 20 August 2019)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Me and my boyfriend have been working our arses off these past few months and have planned a dirty weekend away together in a few weeks. We’ve hardly seen each other in that time because we’ve been so busy with work, family and events like weddings so really need this time together. Other than going out for a meal the plans so far don’t involve leaving our hotel room too much...

The other day he told me he’d bought a sexual enhancement pill for the trip which apparently isn’t Viagra but a supplement full of natural ingredients which he’d read about in a newspaper. He said it supposedly lasts 36 hours and means he can just go and go and go again without struggling to get an erection. I was a little bit enthusiastic about it but also couldn’t help but feel slightly offended that he feels he needs to take something like that at just 24 years old. He assured me I turn him on to no-end without one of those pills but he just wants us to be able to have fun for the whole weekend.

I can see why it would be a lot of fun being able to have seemingly endless amounts of sex for 36 hours but still don’t feel that excited over it, even though our busy schedules mean we’ve only had sex once in the past three months. I am gagging for it, but at the same time I feel that knowing he’s taken an enhancement pill would spoil it. Do I just need to lighten up a bit? I spoke to a couple of my friends and one said it wouldn’t bother her in the slightest if it was only an every now and then occurrence or a ‘treat’ for us both. She said it’s unrealistic to think that a man can have sex over and over again naturally. She thinks even twice would be pushing it, hence why they make pills like these.

My other friend said she felt like shaking me and telling me to just get a grip and go and have fun and stop reading too much into it. Are they right? Am I just being overly stubborn about it?

Thanks

OP, Idk if you are still looking at this thread, or if you two have had your sexy weekend away together, yet. Unless your bf is diagnosed with erectile disfunction, he should not use any enhancements, and if he does have E.D. then he should only use a proven medication such as Viagra! Men are very visual creatures...I know, as i am one! You are the only enhancement that he needs! Full nudity is not as sexy as a teasing item of clothing. You will be dressed traveling to the resort and when you go out for meals. So what is his idea of hot? Short skirt? Wrap around skirt? Painted on leggings? What about under things? A little thong that rides up in between in the front? Garter belt and stockings? See thru tights without any panty? A quarter cup bra? No bra at all? In a restaurant, excuse yourself to the ladies, then return to your table and hand your bf, your balled up wet thong? And no matter which clothes, sit not too prim and proper! You said it is a Dirty Weekend! Visual stimulants are best! Have fun OP!

At 24 he'll probably be be able hide the sausage five times over 7 hours, with no pills. After that he'll need a two hour break between rounds. A good time to snooze. Alcohol will cut into those numbers but may prolong his orgasms. After about the fourth time he'll have little or no semen. Remembering the good old rainy days.

Yes you absolutely need to get a grip! I don't understand what is so 'offensive' about this? Like your friend said this will be a treat for you both. And a well-earned one by the sound of things. You've been so busy and your relationship has suffered for the past few months because you've hardly seen one-another in that time so it sounds like you need this weekend.

All he wants is for the both of you to have a good time and you yourself have said that other than your plans don't involve leaving your hotel room that much and that you are gagging for it. In that case imagine your disappointment if you could only do it once or twice for the whole weekend?

Your friend is right, it is unrealistic for men to be able to have sex more than twice a day without a little 'help' so this pill will do wonders. If he's read about it in a newspaper as well it must be good otherwise it wouldn't have been worth reporting about!

As the saying goes 'Just sit back, relax and let the good times roll...'

Enjoy the weekend!

You are having a case of foolish pride and ego, for yourself! You concern should be that almost any such enhancement pill is a blend of who knows what? These pills are not regulated for safety of the patients health. They have never undergone the rigors of testing and clinical trials, like the medications Viagra and Cialis have. Unregulated pills can have damaging and unexpected effects on a persons health, ie elevated blood pressure, stroke and heart attack! Appeal to your boyfriend to not take his enhancement pill, that is only supported by anecdotal claims that will fail to deliver, and may cause harm! Ask him to purchase 2 or 3 Viagra tables to take on your sex weekend, only to use as directed, if he fails to keep up naturally! Note, if he has heart disease and uses nitrates for chest pain or has had a heart attack, he MUST NOT USE Viagra or Cialas!!! Have a Great Sex Marathon, and Enjoy!

The pill is snake oil, probably a lot of caffeine and energy drink ingredients. He won't have 36 hours of erections. Viagra won't even do that. But he'll probably be awake to give you lots of oral. Just saying.

Oh...BTW...please don't let him know that you discussed all this with two of your friends. I think that was something that was supposed to be kept between the two of you! If he finds-out, that's when you should be concerned about whether he feels attracted to you. Somethings are private, and should be kept between just you and your boo!

A reader, anonymous, writes (25 July 2019):

First-off, those enhancement pills are a farce. They don't live-up to their promises. They usually have a placebo-effect; and sometimes they cause heart-palpitations, headaches, can effect blood-pressure, cause blurred-vision; and all their ingredients, in most cases, aren't fully disclosed. The risky side-effects aren't worth the trouble.

The greatest risk is that these supposed sexual-enhancement pills are a combination of ingredients that are not scientifically-proven to work; nor medically researched or approved. They're effectiveness is only backed by anecdotal-evidence. People claim they work; and until you actually spend your money and try them, you won't know the truth.

He means well, and wants to have a sexy-weekend. Why must so many women always assume it somehow has something to do with their sex-appeal or self-esteem? If anything, YOU might take a chill-pill!

It might be more prudent to suggest he not play around with drugs and herbal-supplements that haven't been thoroughly tested by medical-research. You shouldn't take it personally, nor presume that he feels he needs the pills; because you don't turn him on...*sigh*! In this sense I have to agree with your friend. "Get a grip!"

Suggest to your beloved that you'd feel more comfortable; if he'd just let nature take its course, and not feel it necessary to include questionable enhancements that could cause more harm than good. That would be sensible, and less likely to hurt his feelings for wanting to give you the best weekend ever! Be appreciative of the heart behind it.

N91 agony auntI have plenty of friends who are using viagra due to erection problems, I’m 27 and they’re the same age, so it can happen to younger people also, although in this case I think your BF wants to take it so that he can have sex at any given moment of the weekend, it can be tricky to get an erection sometimes even when you’re aroused when you’ve had sex multiple times!

Definitely no offence meant here by your BF, just enjoy the weekend!

Youcannotbeserious agony auntI suspect his intentions were good, although perhaps slightly misguided. He is trying to live the male fantasy: having sex over and over and over. Most women I know would soon get fed up of that, regardless of how horny they felt at the start. He is probably also slightly worried he may not live up to your expectations as you have not had sex for so long and, given how much you have both been working, he is probably tired into the bargain.

I doubt the pill will actually live up to his expectations. There are a lot of charlatans selling total rubbish on the internet. If anything, it will probably have a placebo effect, with him getting horny just from BELIEVING the pill is making him horny.

I am with your friends on this one. As you are both looking forward to a week-end of sex, just go for it but don't be too disappointed if this pill doesn't turn him into Marathon Man!

Honeypie agony auntWhy not suggest that he "saves" the pill to when he can't keep up with you? I mean let's say this pill will give him erection after erection... at some point, YOU might WANT a break, you might be too sore. If he can keep up with you WITHOUT the pill, I think that is just healthier.

I think it's rarely a good idea to take pills when you REALLY don't need it. And while it might claim to be "only a bunch of herbs", you just never know.

However, I remember having weekends like that were we didn't get out of bed, just marathon sex. No enhancement pills needed.

I think your BF wasn't trying to offend, but trying to ENSURE that HE is up to snuff that weekend so ENJOY it and see how it goes.
