Depends: Mostly that fluid is given nicknames such as "spooge". The liquid comes from glands with in the vagina called skene's glands. The fluid is a combination of mucous and other liquids produced by the vagina.

Normal discharge: Due to arousal and orgasm, the vagina becomes wet due to fluid expressed through the walls of the canal (transudate). At orgasm, bartholin's glands and skenes glands secrete a white/milky discharge in response to sex. This is normal. Some women "ejaculate". This is the release of urine/secretions through the urethra with orgasm. Some say it's due to gspot activation. This is not fully undertood.

Orgasm: For women it is normal not to see anything come out of the vagina with orgasm. For men, it is normal to see an ejaculate fluid come out of the penis, except in the cases of retro-grade ejaculation where the fluid passes backward into the bladder.

Medications: The most common reason to be able to get an erection but not acheive orgasm is medication - usually anti-depressants. Other medications can also cause this (blood pressure, for example) but usually they also interfere with erections.

Retrograde?: Some men, especially on some of the stronger medicines ("mellaril" / thioridazine was most famous) will ejaculate backwards into the bladder. It is not dangerous, but if it is troublesome, a urologist can offer help. Most men occasionally have the sensation of an orgasm but without ejaculation, and this is usually self-limiting and a non-problem.

Consider prostatitis / prostate infection. Semen is produced in the prostate and the inflammation (which can be low grade) can impair ejaculation. Kind of like not being able to blow your nose when your sinuses are stuffed with a cold. See a urologist to discuss this and rule out anatomic causes like a urethral stricture (scar) or neurological disorder.

Every1 is different: Forever is a relative term. Everyone has different abilities to reach climax in different amounts of time. The key is to focus on successful foreplay, an often neglected part of sexual activity. And relax, everyone is different.
