Yeah, but don’t forget to initially use both hands - one to “pinch the tip,” and the other to secure placement. Then you could use only one hand to roll the rest of it down. Of course, if you’re especially dextrous, I suppose you could use the thumb and forefinger to pinch and the other fingers of the same hand to begin the roll.
Anyhoo, nothing worse than an exploding condom because a little air was left in the tip. The panic that ensues forthwith can really kill the moment…YMMV.
If I was with a guy and he couldn’t get it up, I’d take it personally. It’s never actually happened, but I think that would probably make a girl feel pretty damn unattractive.
The reason she hasn’t called is probably because she has no plan to be insulted like that again. Even if it is the dude’s personal problem, the girl probably still thought it was her fault.
One way to keep this from happening is to keep a firm grip on yourself during and after putting the condom on. That way it’s not just hanging in the breeze, waiting to go limp the second you think “she looks hot, I sure hope I stay hard!”
That actually happened Indygrrl! The next day when I talked to her, she wanted to know if it was her fault. She’s very self conscious so it kinda bothered her that it happened. I was eventually able to convince her it was my fault. I hope she believed me.
Nice metaphor. But, wouldn’t it be more like going into the next viewingroom, where they are showing another movie, “Cool Things You Can Do With Other Bodyparts?” You can enjoy that one with popcorn AND soda, and still see the movie starring Penis Clooney tomorrow.
Is she not going down on you? Guys like to be gentlemen and claim it’s all their fault. Girls get self concious and blame themselves. The truth it, it’s NOBODY’s fault, but there are things you BOTH can do to help the situation.
Instead of just watching you fumble around, she should be all over you. If it doesn’t want to stay hard, have her go down on you. While she is doing that, try to freakin relax and dont think “please get hard, please get hard, please get hard”. Just lay back and RELAX!! Then you can enjoy it. Even if you’re not hard right away, a BJ still feels great. You will eventually get hard and you’ll be happy again that it works. Dont try to rush into the condom. Make sure your erection is (for lack of a better word) “stable”. If you dont have a raging hard on, dont even try to put the condom on, just enjoy the oral. Either you will eventually get a nice erection going, or you will eventually orgasm. Either way, you win. But don’t forget to repay the favor. Then, the next time you shouldn’t be as nervous around her.
If she’s just sitting there all nervous while you are freaking out and fumbling with the rubber and concentrating so hard on your erection and trying to rush your dick in her… then she’s wrong. Not necessarily her fault. She could be new at this…
That’s an easy fix. Tell her how she makes you crazy when she touches you and all this other romantic crap that they like to hear. Explain to her what you’d like her to do, and ask what she’d like you to do. Then she’ll be glad to help out.
If not, then she isn’t worth it anyway.
Or go down on her instead. I don’t know about you, but a moaning, writhing woman is much more arousing to me than simply a naked one. There’s just something about “oh yeah, fuck me now, fuck me right now, NOW NOW NOW” that makes the little soldier stand at attention…
Most likely, any man who says this has never happened to him is either lying or just hasn’t been having sex very long. Sex is a complicated thing and more of it happens in your head than anywhere else. Like the other guys said, don’t sweat it, lay off the booze and self gratification, drink lots of water and DON’T sweat it.
Okay, I am not a man so I can’t exactly relate to what you are experiencing. However, I do know that your problem is more than likely just a temporary thing and you will overcome it. As a lot of people have been telling you, try not to think about it. Obsessing over it will only make it worse (I know, I know - that’s easier said than done).
For what it’s worth, I’ve been with a couple of guys who couldn’t rise to the occasion, and we just laughed it off. It’s no one’s fault - not yours, not hers. It’s just something that happens once in a while.
I am not a doctor (nor do I play one on TV), but I would guess that if by some chance you do continue to have this problem, that you may have circulatory problems. Are you taking any medication(s), such as blood thinners? Had you been drinking? I believe that both can contribute to failed erections.
I’m willing to guess that nothing is physically wrong, though. Especially if you are able to get an erection when you masturbate.
My (unsolicited) advice is to include putting on the condom as part of foreplay. I’ve had guys tell me they like it when the woman puts the condom on them, although some would rather do it themselves. Either way, if you’re nervous about this girl, you’re probably going to experience this again. So just relax.
Agreed. But for others who are already having confidence problems, that actually makes things worse. Now not only is he thinking “shit shit shit. get hard, get hard, get hard”, but also “is she enjoying this? am I doing this well? is she getting off? does she notice that im still not hard yet? does she know Im just stalling” And then it gets even worse when you get her so turned on and she really wants you bad, so she pulls you away from there so that you’ll get inside her - not knowing that you’re not erect yet. . . Man, sometimes that just adds fuel to the fire. The problem is most always mental, and relaxing is the absolute best cure. I can think of no activity more relaxing than getting a BJ.
