    Hey guys,

    after a long time I'm back in the forum. I had struggled to find a girl for a long time but was finally successful. I visited her and one thing led to another. We made out, carassed and things got wilder. Well, until I couldn't get it up even though she tried her best to give me an erection.

    FYI. This was my first time being this intimate with a woman. She was very kind and just said it was due to stress and that this happens to many guys.

    Well, I noticed that physical touch just didn't give me the same level of arousal as a visual stimulus did. Even though I have done NoFap for years now, mostly successfully, I still struggled with ED in bed. I haven't watched porn for a month or so and before that I have only watched it with great intervalls inbetween. My relapses were pretty rare. So, I wouldn't call myself a porn addict.

    But still, this all made me think. I don't quite know what the cause of my ED in bed was. Do you guys actually think that it could have been stress or that the reason was still porn?

    Also, as I'm on day 30 I wonder how much my current flatline plays into this.

    I'd love to hear some insight from you guys and hopefully some advice on how to overcome this. Maybe some men have gone through similar situations. I find this woman very attractive and want to do it right the next time

    Thanks in advance.

    I have had PIED while on streaks of over a month and after using porn only one or two times a month so that could be an issue for you. Also it's very common to have Ed the first times you are with a woman. Cut out porn entirely. Even Instagram and bikini pics and then give yourself some time to adjust to your new partner. Sometimes I can't get it up the first few times but then after I get comfortable I have no problems. It sounds like the girl you are with is a good partner. Congratulations on that!

    Totally the wrong attitude. This will only increase your performance anxiety and you won´t perform at all. I assume you are over 20 and being ''good'' or having experience in bed at that age is kind of assumed which creates stress. Porn also caused you to imagine that sex should be like in the movies, which is part of your anxiety. Sex is like riding a bike: 99% of people can do/learn it but, like everything, it takes a learning curve. You can´t expect to be an expert/porn actor on your first time. Experience is the most important thing and you need to collect as much of it as possible. As far as I see it, you can go 2 routes here:

    1. Medication: take a vi*gra so you don´t have to worry about the erection problem. If you have severe anxiety however even vi*gra could fail you. You could try it out and lower the dossage each time, so you gain the experience to lower your anxiety.

    2. Lower your anxiety by taking the pressure off you, not increasing the pressure: Accept that you suck in bed and that it will not change until you actively learn it by doing. Know that it won´t be always like that but that´s the way it is. Even tell her that you are totally new to this and don´t know what the fuck your doing. Tell her to teach you what she likes, how she likes to be eaten out or fingered. If you want, you can google how to finger or suck pussy to increase your knowledge. If you are like everyone you have probably done that already. But not every women reacts the same way to the same techniques. So communication is key. If she wants to please you tell her to go gentle and just caress you and give you kisses. Her trying to give you an erection will only force the situation and put pressure on you. If you kinda feel aroused, tell her she can try but it won´t probably happen yet (again take the pressure off). All this will take the pressure off you and by being relaxed and having no outcome dependence at all you might even get an erection. But the key is to not expect anything. Just try to enjoy the ride and the learning curve.

    Hope it helps

    Congratulations on realizing that NoFap is not a solution, but a tool. For how long have you been dealing with ED issues?

    Do you masturbate? Release any sexual energy at all? Sometimes masturbating to natural thoughts or in a natural way like with a fleshlight can kickstart the rewiring process and make your body feel comfortable with sexual touches and experiences that aren't porn/hand death grip. If I were you, Id masturbate infrequently to wake your sexual desires up a little. Don't get sucked into the psychological flatline that you probably don't even have. If your mind understands that gentle touches can get you aroused, then there should be no issues getting an erection from a girls gentle touch.

    I'm quite sure it had something to do with anxiety, it can even be related to your mood like if you're depressed it can im impact in sexual performance it has happened to me, also if you haven't connected yet with her into a deeper level can also impact. let me tell you my story, when I met my wife and we were about to have sex the first time I couldn't get it up, wanted to impress her and in the end it just ruined everything, after some time that same day after trying I managed to have sex with her, from there I started fall in love with her and erections became so easy. In the end we all think at some degree that everything has to do with our penis and being able to get it up but we forget about the feelings behind, loving another human and even developing trust with that person is the key to successful sex

    Thanks very much for your reply. I haven't watched porn for the last 30 days and I don't have Instagram, but I noticed that my brain is still used to getting aroused visually which is what I think I need to fix. We live about 150 km apart so we don't see each other every day. I hope next time I will be more comfortable and just let things happen. She was really great, she was very accepting of me not having much experience and making out with her was a better experience than any porn movie I have ever watched.

    Basically never. I have never had a problem with getting one up. I can masturbate without porn and get hard. But I couldn't get it up in bed. What the reason is, I don't know. She was very accepting and non judgemental towards me and I felt comfortable around her. One thing that might have played a role was that I was pretty tired that day because I hadn't slept well for a few days prior. But I don't know. In general I don't have a problem of getting erect.

    Thanks, this was what I had in mind. I had basically been in a flatline for 2 weeks or so when sleeping with this woman. I think I just need to get my brain used to healthy sexual expression again.

    Thanks, yes I'm sure anxiety played a role, although I was much less anxious than I had previously anticipated. I got to around 80% at one point I would say, but couldn't hold it. I will approach it with a relaxed attitude the next time and just try to enjoy myself.

    you were nervous, and you have intellect that dominates your body, so it was just too fast for your mind to let it happen.

    you may have rushed into it just a tad, since you probably had limited time to get intimate before your visit was over. if you had more casual time around eachother and the intimacy was given the proper length of build up (several days, weeks, or even months of becoming close in other ways, building trust that you are safe to be vulnerable together) you probably would not have even been nervous, just excited and blissful.

    there's too much pressure from society and culture on "doing sex" and "sexing good", it's all a bunch of irrelevant status-seeking bullshit. sex is literally a spiritual union. it's an amazing event that deserves elaborate time and preparatory familiarizing with your mate. cherish your time together, and don't rush the sex. the sooner you get to the sex, the quicker the natural decline in the relationship over time, in my experience. savor it, like a rich desert, so you don't cheapen the experience.

    Thank You very much. I think you summed up my problem pretty well. When we were in bed I was just thinking of getting it up rather than just enjoying the moment.

    Hey guys, just wanted to say I got the problem solved. We had sex and it was amazing. Thanks for all the people giving me tips. In the end it was just about enjoying myself and getting out of my head.
