I need advice...this is embarrassing

Are you an active individual? I've heard from quite a few people that being more active and working out can increase your sex drive. I think this is in part due to testosterone level increase, and also in part due to more confidence in your body.

All I know is, once I started (seriously) working out again, my sex drive went from level 11 to OVER NINE THOUSAND.
 
You know what you need?

Some fresh mango.

Mango does the trick ;)

Okay... I've got a little bit of a situation on my hands. It's pretty embarrassing and I don't know if I should even be posting this here but I really need some advice.

I'll make this short and sweet.

I'm 19, just got a new girlfriend and I can't "get it up."

This isn't supposed to happen at 19! It's not that I'm nervous or anything like that. I have been drinking a lot of alcohol recently, but it happens when I'm sober as well.

I'm sorry if this thread is inappropriate but I'm desperate for advice! This situation is taking a toll on my ego....

How do I fix it?

man when I was 19 I couldn;t keep it down in the vicinity of a female, come to think of it, I still can't.
 
Waaaay TMI & BS here....
"Use your fingers; pleasure her oraly(sic)"
Brilliant.

Now I understand how my Wife (schoolteacher) feels when the Klowns in her classes act up....

To the OP: If you're serious-
It's either physical (diabetes, many other possible causes) See a Physician for a physical exam.

Or:
It's psychological- Either get some therapy, talk it out with someone you trust, (or better yet the Lady involved-that could be interesting!)

Or wait and see if your issue works itself out in time.
That might be your best bet.
 
As someone who has studied at the "kinsey institute" at Indiana university in Bloomington. I know the above is not true. Not at all. You do not have a limited number of erections.

With my limited knowledge as a sex studies minor in school I ask the following.

Can you get it up for porn or alone?
If you can then its something with the relationship...
i.e. you are not attracted, guild, stress, nervousness.

If you just can't get and erection see a doctor. Could be diet, alcohol(major factor in large doses, not so much in small ones).

So, biggest question..
can you get it up with others or alone? If so its the relationship.

Actually it's not a limited amount of erections, but I've heard too much sex or wanking can fatique your adrenale gland. And you need a certain amound of adrenaline to get wood. No adrenaline, no wood.

crew about is pointless, none of them hardly ever get any action.
Especially the married guys.
You shag the same woman for over fifteen years day in and out, then come back and tell us you didn't have to find innovative ways of waking the little man up at some point along the line ;)

Girls get it easy in that dept. No go, KY, go, finished? Good! Now let me sleep!!! :D
