Sex in the morning is nice, but....

I'm ruined for the day.

DP is of an age where things work better for him in the mornings, and we have lifestyle where we can make that work with regards to time.

However, when the sex is good, which it usually is, it leaves me exhausted and in need of sleep, and that feeling lasts all day. It's not that the sex itself is particularly energetic, but that an intesnse orgasm seems to sap all my energy. This isn't to do with my age, it was the case when I was young too.

Is this normal/usual? Usually you hear of men who just want to roll over and sleep afterwards....

How about if he started an hour earlier and left you time to have an hour to nod off? Would that work?

(I’m the same by the way)

And hows his energy for the rest of the day?

He seems fine, says it sets up the day nicely.
