I can relate. 27M and every relationship I’ve had has been jeopardised by me being a bundle of nerves at the first sexual encounter. One-night stands are 50/50 and largely dependent on the amount of alcohol I’ve consumed. I’m lucky to have had women in my life who have been understanding when things haven’t quite gone to plan, and have fortunately decided I’m worth a second chance.

When you do work through your issues (which might just take the right person) you’ll probably find that things improve considerably - I’ve had embarrassing moments with at least 3 women who later claimed that I’m the best lover they’ve had, and now I’m much more brazen and don’t suffer to the same extent.

Also, though it’s not something most men will admit to, viagra worked wonders for me in terms of getting through that initial anxious period and restoring my confidence in bed.
