Why Can't My Boyfriend Stay Hard All of a Sudden? - #60547
I am really stressed about this thing that’s been going on with my boyfriend lately. He’s always been pretty confident in the bedroom, but outta nowhere, we’re dealing with what seems like erectile dysfunction treatment issues. I mean, it’s not like we’re doing anything different, but all of a sudden, he can’t stay hard, and it’s so frustrating for both of us. I have read that stress can really mess with performance, and I think he’s been under a lot of pressure at work. I want to be supportive, but I feel like I’m kinda clueless on how to help someone with erectile dysfunction. Should I talk to him about it directly, or would that make things worse? And like, how do you even approach this kind of thing without making it awkward? I keep wondering if there’s something we can do together to improve erections, or if it’s something that needs a doctor’s visit. What do you all recommend? I have heard about different treatments, but I just don’t know what’s best for him. I really want to help, but I’m just not sure how to handle this situation. Should we try to spice things up a little, or is that just gonna make him feel more pressure?
