Foods that Increase Sexual Stamina
Are you struggling with finishing too early? Don’t be too worried. It happens to the best of us too. In this article, I will be discussing foods that increase sexual stamina.
Before I dive into the article, let me share a recent sexual experience of a friend with you.
He told me he met this well rounded and bounded lady on Instagram. They were already into each other via chat in a short space of time (my friend is quite a smooth operator).
One talk led to another and they were already planning to meet and have sex (He doesn’t like wasting time).
Normally, he is active sexually and does have very good sexual stamina. So as a homeboy, he already hyped himself that he would put her in “7 positions in 70 minutes“ and give it to her hot. Did I mention the lady is a Calabar lady?
The day they picked came. He was ready to shift someone daughter womb. After 3-5 minutes of foreplay and he was ready to start pounding (as he put it) and “45 seconds into the pounding, everywhere don burst“. All of the multiple positions in 70 minutes ended inside of a minute.
There are ranges of things that could have caused his premature ejaculation as I told him. Anxiety, overexcitement, too much stimulation, stress or even too much alcohol.
As said earlier, I will be discussing extensively the foods that increase sexual stamina. In this case, stamina means how long you can last in bed. The term sexual stamina is relative to an individual. Some see 7-10 minutes as long, others might see it as short.
