Question
Last night I had vaginal sex with a condom. We had sex for about a half hour then he cam. He didn't pull out, but he was still wearing the condom. when he pulled out he showed me the condom and there was no cum! He said the condom didnt break because it wasnt leaking.. But there was no cum inside the condom. Could he have bursted it inside of me? Would the condom have been dripping? Am I just being paranoid? Thank you for your advice.

Answer
hi caitlin,

i cannot make any assumption regarding your situation. condoms is usually effective and breakage occurs during "rough" sex or improper use/handling. if the condom was still on his penis at the time he pulled out, then your visible observation of no leakage may be a sign that the condom worked. not all guys will climax. possiblities may be

1. he may have lied about climaxing
2. he doesn't produce ejaculate. this occurs in a few men who are infertile.
3. he may have ejaculated immediately prior to having sex with you. or he may have ejaculated multiple times during the day prior to sex. this may decrease his ejaculation load.
