Whatever your relationship status, how do you feel about discussing erection issues or early climax with a partner?

I had someone I was seeing drop me cause of the issue. It doesn’t feel good. Makes you feel worthless

I feel embarrassed and like a failure because I keep letting it happen. I tell her I’m actively working on it and it usually end up getting worse or no better but I feel like I’m just giving her empty promises.

Currently single. Have used pills as a confidence boost to get past performance anxiety and going soft on the first/ first few times having sex with every partner I’ve had for the last 6/7 years. Been this way since going soft with a girl who didn’t react very well to it on the first time and my confidence/ anxiety spiralled. Have never told any of my partners or anyone else about it. Very cautious to open up to the next girl about it but hoping to try it when the chance arises rather than revert to taking Viagra. We’ll see :man_shrugging:

I think the problem is my partner and her views/desire about sex. She doesn’t seem that into it or mature about it’s so it’s hard to talk to her about it. I’m soft because of her

If they’re the right one they will support you. Brighter days are ahead and stick at the exercises.

I wish I had this app before my 5 year relationship fell apart

It’s hard to describe… I don’t really like havingex because of my issues with errection and reaching orgasm so I’ve bee putting it off. Hopefully as I work through this program I find more hope

Discussing these issues early is beneficial as it relieves potential anxieties in the bedroom in future. Communication is key to an honest relationship.

With most of the women I dated I just told them I was having this problem that I was working on, and they were all actually quite understanding. I find it a lot harder to do if there’s a one night stand. I tend not to discuss it, but if I can’t get it up I feel like I owe them an explanation. The thing with one night stands is that I feel like I let them down, because all they wanted was playful sex and I can’t give it to them.

It was hard at first to discuss this, but I’ve found the more it has been something I’ve discussed the easier those conversations are and also the more positive I feel about finding solutions

I’m already doing it, but it’s not always comfortable or easy

It’s like anything else you want to talk about. I honestly find it more difficult to disagree on how to do the dishes than to tell a partner that I might go up and down a bit.

Hard the first time but now very easy, a key thing that is supporting me

Never really been totally honest about it

Feeling slightly more comfortable. Might be difficult for a one night stand, but in most situations, it’d be comfortable

Have ongoing discussions already as I go through the mojo journey. It hasn’t always been easy and I still don’t like talking about it.

I do want to be better at it and will continue to try and open up

It’s still hard.

i found it really difficult, one of the reasons we broke up. he was a little bit more proactive than i am, still haunts me that i couldnt match him

I feel like I have to. I don’t want them to ever feel like it’s because I’m not into them or something they have done.

It’s a lot easier said then done. But I can see that saying anything before reaching that point could be very beneficial and seem very confident. I’ve always prefaced for the others to communicate for what they want (slower, faster,harder). But I don’t think I’ve ever communicated what I want out of them. Maybe because of my inner critic and what I think is expected of me in terms of performance.
