  Thinking about Tarzan sliding down vines also does the trick >

  TIFU thread a couple days ago. 
  I can't be bothered to find a link but some dude was high chatting with his roommates and they were talking about strategies to delay the nut. Buddies were all saying things like "just study the wall" and OP tells them he thinks of one specific scene from Tarzan, song and all. 
  Roomies think it's hilarious and start texting him gifs of the scene and blasting the song whenever he's got a girl over.

  My ex would always be very vocal about wanting it harder and faster, and very kindly asking that that I shouldn't come yet either. 
  Very tricky! >
  
  I was trying to imagine myself getting completely owned and humiliated in a multiplayer video game in order to last longer
  Then after I was actually playing the game and was defeated I started noticing a slight hints of arousal
  I think I got myself a multiplayer humiliation kink >
  
  Fucking Noob >
  
  Thx, got a half-chub
  But you need to beat me in the game to make it further >
  
  Ok pick a number between 0 and 10 >
  
  And isnt a number >
  
  Slow deep breaths make it easier to not orgasm. 
  The opposite is also true, if you are having a hard time climaxing short shallow breaths or hold your breath. >
  
  Staying connected to the breath is key, learning to use it is rewarding >
  
  Something something Hamon, something something JoJo reference. >
  
  Ah so that’s how Joseph did Tomoko >
  
  I imagine getting my arms and legs getting torn off and not being able to kill myself because I am a torso and life is awful >

  Nah. Enjoy it. Drop the first payload. Recharge while diving face first into the breach til the second wave is ready >
  
  Some of us don't have a second wave until the next day >
  
  Fix your diet and exercise. And drink more water. Like, right now, stop what you’re doing and drink water >
  
  Sadly some of us are over 20 years old and already live healthy lives, so that doesn't cut it. >
  
  You can be well over 20 and still get hard several times a night >
  
  And you can also drink lots of water, exercise a lot, eat well, and not. Your body is not the same as someone else's body. >
  
  Well that must suck for them. >
  
  Nah I just get her off before, nut, regroup for round two and blow her socks off. >
  
  More like regroup then make her question why she didn't just use her vibrator instead >
  
  Lmao that’s fair >

  Are you on any medication? SSRI's had this effect on me. >
  
  I am not. I might be wrong, but I've assumed it was a side effect of Fibromyalgia, (as it is accompanied with pain). It isn't always a factor, and I have good and bad days. >
  
  It could also be psychological, maybe worth exploring so that you and your partner can both enjoy the experience. >
  
  I tried all those conversations, lol. She left over a year ago, and I've been too busy for it to be a problem since. Silver lining? >
  
  Silver lining. >
  
  When I was younger, I did multiplication tables in my head if I wanted to prolong things a little longer, which worked for me because I was terrible at math so it required some concentration. 
  The only downside is that I would sometimes yell out "748". or whatever number I happen to be on when I came :D
  Well, the last part isn't true, but the math part is ... >
  
  It's all in the foreplay.
  The penetration is nice, but it's not the end all be all.
  Foreplay gets you in the mood and it can amplify the experience 10 fold if done right.
  Teasing and playing with your partner creates a close connection and is the entry point for the full penetration; making it more meaningful and enjoyable >
  
  The few who are able to keep going after the nut, or after a very brief pause, those are the heroes we should all aspire to be. >
  
  That's usually drugs.
  Cocaine, in particular. >
  
  Have you tried too much pre workout? I took too many doses once because I forgot I already had a bottle and did my workout, showered and my wife had to stop me 4 hours later. I didn’t sleep that night but she slept well for the rest of the night. Not a regular occurrence and I’m no chad for it. Just a fluke. >
  
  Not really.  I enjoy tf out of pleasuring my partner, and the thrusts that feel good for her aren’t always the thrusts that get me there but it’s still enjoyable. >
  
  I've yet to meet a thrust that doesn't get me there... >

  Have a dick, yeah it does. Just don't stop too late. >
  
  Just picture your grandma playing baseball naked or some shit. >
  
  Would you slowly associate your grandma with sex and then get turned on when she’s holding a basketball? >
  
  Only one way to find out I spose. >
  
  Part of the enjoyment isn't just the attention your dick gets... Those things can last however long you want/your partner can stand. >
  
  
  Those things can last however long you want
  
  you obv dont have a dick >
  
  He is saying the parts that arnt dick related. Like say fingers/kissing/tongue/vibrators. >

  I had anxiety, that helped me last longer. I had to be emotionally attached to someone in order to “finish”. >

  Up until my late 30's I used to do the opposite. I would get my first one out of the way as fast as possible. I could recover immediately, and then just go for hours afterwards. >
  
  I feel like this is my method as well my recovery time is very quick >
  
  There are the opposites. The onss that last too long and make it weird or uncomfortable >
  
  True until I passed the 50 year mark. Now it's sometimes hard to even finish. >
  
  unfortunately i have to focus on how hot it is or i lose the hard on. pretty sure i have ed. >
  
  Huh. I have to chose whether I wanna be hard or not. If I don’t want to be hard it’s just not hard, if I want it to it gets hard. >
  
  yeah i wish it was that easy. i’ve had times where i really wanna keep going but i just end up with noodle. it’s pretty depressing.
  other times though, i can go for days. it’s really odd. >
  
  T is directly related and is dependent on diet, it can be diminished or increased by certain foods. Exercises in the correct fashion will increase T. You could be eating and exercising in the wrong direction sometimes and partially or correctly some other times. >
  
  hmm… i think you’re right. i generally stick ti a vegan diet, although im not too good at ensuring im getting everything i need. i bet i am malnourished >
  
  Self control is essential to being a good man. Hold a job, hold your liquor, hold the door & hold back that nut. >

  "Guys have to actively try to not enjoy sex in order to ~~enjoy~~ having sex longer" Fixed
  Having sex longer is not more enjoyable for men (and even for women ) . It is something that men do since they:
  
  Do not know how to make their partner enjoy sex in other ways
  Are not confident enough to "let themselves go" by being afraid of being judged as not be good in bed
  They think quantity >> quality (Do you think a woman truly enjoys the experience when a man is  not there and thinks of their dead grandma' and provokes himself pain? Really?)
  
  Once you stop caring when you orgasm and enjoy the moment, you will last much much longer than all the other techniques combined. >
  
  Exactly. If this is too optimistic for anyone, think about it like this: everything you enjoy always slips out of your grasp! >
  
  Grandma naked playing baseball, is what my own dad told me to imagine if I ever ran into an issue of not lasting long enough.
  Grandma and I had to move to Alabama, they only state that will let you marry your Grandma. >
  
  This is downright hilarious! >
  
  Dunbar loved shooting skeet because he hated every minute of it and the time passed so slowly. He had figured out that a single hour on the skeet-shooting range with people like Havermeyer and Appleby could be worth as much as eleven-times-seventeen years.
  “I think you’re crazy,” was the way Clevinger had responded to Dunbar’s discovery.
  “Who wants to know?” Dunbar answered.
  “I mean it,” Clevinger insisted.
  “Who cares?” Dunbar answered.
  “I really do. I’ll even go as far as to concede that life seems longer i—“
  “—is longer i—“
  “—is longer—IS longer? All right, is longer if it’s filled with periods of boredom and discomfort, b—“
  “Guess how fast?” Dunbar said suddenly.
  “Huh?”
  “They go,” Dunbar explained.
  “Who?”
  “Years.”
  “Years?”
  “Years,” said Dunbar. “Years, years, years.”
  “Do you know how long a year takes when it’s going away?” Dunbar asked Clevinger. “This long.” He snapped his fingers. “A second ago you were stepping into college with your lungs full of fresh air. Today you’re an old man.”
  “Old?” asked Clevinger with surprise. “What are you talking about?”
  “Old.”
  “I’m not old.”
  “You’re inches away from death every time you go on a mission. How much older can you be at your age? A half minute before that you were stepping into high school, and an unhooked brassiere was as close as you ever hoped to get to Paradise. Only a fifth of a second before that you were a small kid with a ten-week summer vacation that lasted a hundred thousand years and still ended too soon. Zip! They go rocketing by so fast. How the hell else are you ever going to slow time down?” Dunbar was almost angry when he finished.
  “Well, maybe it is true,” Clevinger conceded unwillingly in a subdued tone. Maybe a long life does have to be filled with many unpleasant conditions if it’s to seem long. But in that event, who wants one?”
  “I do,” Dunbar told him.
  “Why?” Clevinger asked.
  “What else is there?”

  Focus on them, then pump and dump, nut and bolt, hit it and quit it. >
  
  That's one strategy, another strategy to last longer is just to pay attention to your breathing and go at a pace that you can stay steady... >
  
  Just natures way of making damn sure we can make babies, no matter how bad we are at sex. >
  
  The real trick is empathy. It sounds tacky but if you are actively thinking about pleasing your partner then everything else just kind of stays on high alert even while being used >
  
  To be fair. Dick in, dick out is only part of the whole experience. >
  
  Its not that simple. You have to delay cumming longer but it might also kill the ejaculation and you wouldn't enjoy it when it happens. So you have to have proper build up and calibrated delay so its not ruined for you. >
  
  How astute.. Men have to do everything they can to avoid orgasm, whilst women have to do everything they can to achieve. >
  
  Or yanno, don't stop after you get off? There are plenty of ways to get your girl off if you happen to finish early. 
  Toys are your friend, not your enemy. >
  
  There’s cream that you can rub on your dick to make you last longer
  Personally I’d invest in going multiple rounds >
  
  Sort of? I feel like there are some things that feel super good, but don't push me closer to climax so I try to focus on those things. I don't imagine something awful to delay it, always seemed like it would kinda ruin the enjoyment. >
  
  How does this post and many other stupid posts make it to shower thoughts but every single one of mine gets taken down 😡
  Take my downvote >
  
  in my experience depression will also help you last a long time. >
  
  Remember everyone: men only prioritize their own pleasure and definitely dont view sex as a performative work. /s >
  
  Depends on your sexual response dude. If you're nothing.. nothing.. peak.. nothing then agree. Some guys arent like that. Lucky bastards >
  
  These things can be learned >
  
  🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣✌️ >
  
  I would be looking for the camera and just waiting the "hhEhE iS a ViDeo fOr mY U2 cHANnel" >
  
  Having sex longer is great, but how much longer are we talking? 5 minutes or 50 minutes? >
  
  No I don't.
  Get her if first for best entry or whatever then get mine >
  
  Ive always thinking for some football epic moments when having it 😭😭😭 once i try to enjoy that juicy 🐱 im done for the moment. >
  
  I have to actively try TO enjoy sex so I can get it over with >
  
  I have to actively focus on enjoying sex in order to finish having sex. >
  
  Or it might be signs of something else. “Sorry I’m so sweaty and it’s been an hour plus because…well anyways”. >
  
  I have always think about this, that men wheb they care about their partner they'll do this. I wonder what women actually think about this. I don't know if the ask reddit sub someone has put this there. >
  
  If you start clapping your arms like a seal and with your mouth go “ARF” “ARF”…it’s impossible to not fully enjoy the experience >
  
  I’ll admit - I’ve done the imagine your grandma technique as awful as it sounds. Provides an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute of game time. >
  
  Yup, I get the most enjoyment out of giving my girl orgasms, I try to aim for at last 3. >
  
  Just bust the nut where mutually agreed upon, then do more foreplay. Lose yourself in every moment then when ya boi is back go for another round.  It's not difficult, like they want you to enjoy it as much as you want them to. Some find it as a complement if you bust quick cus it means they're just that exciting for you. 
  Just make sure you're relaxed and not focused on preventing the nut, the more you think about it the quicker it'll happen. Find the spots they like while you recharge and start making them climax. Stay hydrated, be safe, have fun. >
  
  Sad but true.
  I have actually imagined eating rats and roadkill while in the act to last longer. >
  
  Women always clowning on us for that smh like when’s the last time they had to hold back a thousand kids coming through one doorway
