8 CommentsI know it may sound odd but my boyfriend told me today that he cannot have sex with me because he cannot play tennis well later in the afternoon.
We have been together for 2 months and this is the first time I heard this.
Just wanted to know if this is a normal thing or he is trying to be only polite in saying no.
I am a bit confused.

It's normal for any male athlete. Sex takes a certain energy out of you, especially the orgasm. Don't take offense to it, just honor his requests and I'm sure you will be rewarded when he is done playing.

I have to agree with Scrivs. I've heard this before, and even have encountered it at times myself.
Being supportive of his request is probably the best thing you can do. There should be no reason to doubt your man, unless of course you have been given a real reason to do so.

Do yourself a favour, girl. By getting rid of this guy you leave yourself free to meet someone capable of stretching himself a little further than he thought he could go.

My ex was an athlete and we went through the same thing. An athlete is pushing the limits of their body and honestly need "everything" to compete. Actually, my ex's that were more serious about their sports hobbies (like basketball, football, etc.) were the same way. It was no big deal, before a track meet/game/whatever we wouldn't have sex. After the event, we would.
Should be the same for you. Not before the game, after the game. If he gives you some excuse as to why he can't do it after the game as well...then, you might want to check into that. :)

I found having sex before a game of soccer very refreshing, maybe because my body produces much energy, I'm sure though that this depends from person to person, during the summer I work 12/13 hours straight as a waiter in a bar/pub(which is a very intensive job), and when i get home the only thing i want is to burn some more energy....
Like Tyme said, ask him again after the game, if he still doesn't want to have some, then you should talk about it with him, or go to DR. Phil

Thank you all for the information.
We don’t see each other everyday but as long as someone else has also heard of this I think I am OK.
He is such a sweet guy but I think I am at the stage that I look too close to whatever he does. Probably need to post more questions!
Thanks again for all the information

Yeah, it's normal.
But there are things he can do for you that wont use much of his energy ;)

I find that, after an especially good round, I can even be a little wobbly on my feet. That wouldn't go well with tennis.
Just tell him sweaty men turn you on and catch him after the game. :)
