battery dies

i drove my car the other day and the car died, so i got a jump and it started right up. car drove fine for about two days no porblems, then i drove it again and shut it off for about 2 minutes car would not start.
now when i shut the car off and on the batt is died like it is not getting a charge or not holding a charge.
when i drive my volts stay at 14 on my gauge.

it seems like i have this problem even more when my car is warmed up.

what could this be? need help!!!!!

i checked the alt while running and i get 14.5+ out the alt, so the alt is good right?

Re: battery dies

Well for startes the 14.5 when running is perfect. Ide start by having the battery load tested and checking the connections at the battery and the grounds.
