Starting to see sex as negative

Because on my issues with hookups Iā€™m starting to see sex as a negative or scary thing. I think of it as dangerous or debilitating. I just want to be able to find a hook up and have good sex and feel confident at the end of it

This about ED or potential for STIā€™s? Perhaps educate yourself as much as you can on the latter, try to be confident in how you want to approach sex so youā€™re not pressured or stressed. This wonā€™t solve everything immediately, but at least it might serve to help in 50% of the challenge.

Donā€™t let yourself go thereā€¦itā€™s TOXIC! My head got in the way of good sex a couple DECADES ago and I finally gave up! Donā€™t give up! It started with a couple ā€œdonā€™t worry, it happens to everyoneā€ hookups, then I found it nearly impossible to penetrateā€¦blow jobs were still fine but even they were eventually affected. Finally, I gave up entirely, killing it with only the morning erection and raunchier and raunchier porn and toys. STIs were also working against my brain as I enjoy my good health and in a random hookup you never know what you are going to get. Todayā€¦well, Iā€™m here, that is a start (though this is not the most gay-welcoming site) but Iā€™m here for now. I have changed my focus on me, what can I do to be more comfortable in my skin. I am working on my hot dad bod, and not entertaining twinks that will snub me and make me doubt myself. I also take time to appreciate how good Iā€™m looking (not a narcissist whatsoever) instead of how far I have to go and have started prep and doxy prep to help combat my fears of stiā€™s. I find regular FWB(s), who are open and honest can also increase the pleasure as you can relax more, know what each other likes and relax in front of each other. I am also learning to stop focusing on what I am doing but how I can make my partner feelā€¦ if Iā€™m not getting hard, fine, move on to something else like maybe eating their assā€¦and I will be hard without even thinking about it. Get yourself in a good place, focus on what you can do for them and remove mental obstacles about stiā€™s and such buy using preventative measuresā€¦relax and breathā€¦ donā€™t miss out on sex in the hottest years of your life!
