How to stop getting erections so easily

I'm 20 and there is this girl I like and every time I hold hands with her or hug her, I get an erection. It's so embarrassing because I don't back my waist away quickly enough and I know she notices. I don't want her thinking that all I think about is sex because I would like a relationship with her but this is embarrassing. If we're walking or talking or something, I'm fine, but if she hugs me or holds my hand for something or whatever, I get turned on and I don't have time to "tuck it away".

What should I do in this kind of situation?

Thanks

Wow. You're going to explode if she tries to kiss you.

Um, just focus on other things.. And keep yourself calm, which may be hard (pun intended), but it might help.

Pretend its Susan Boyle you're holding hands with. Your erection will definitely die down.

This is more common than you think. First of all, you're probably genuinely horny and it's common for most guys to get 'unwanted' erections. Secondly, a part of you probably goes through a thought process to the effect of 'holding hands leads to hugging, hugging leads to cuddling, cuddling leads to touching/playing and so on'. Lastly, she may find it weird at first but if she's attracted to you, physically at least, she may actually enjoy knowing that you find her sexually attractive. If she's constantly like 'ewwww' then she either doesn't really like you or she's an immature moron.

As to how to solve this 'problem'... It's not easy because you're essentially fighting against your own body, urges and perhaps instincts here but a lot of it happens in your head. Try doing things that your mind can focus on like counting backwards in 17's from 100 or try to do the alphabet backwards, things like that require the full power of my little brain so it usually works. If not then be an opportunist (no don't rub it against her), find a perfect moment to just turn your body away and quickly reach down and pull it up or wherever you prefer to 'hide' them.

She wont mind I had this problem and still do and it was embarrassing a first, its not like its something you can control, she should take it as a compliment.
I find that this is relevant...
