Pre-coital nervousness

Posted in anon mode for rather obvious reasons I would hope.
Before sexual acts I noticed I am having trouble with arousal due to a large bout of nervousness, well not quite like that, it's not dominating my thoughts but probably I've been desensitised because of pr0n, and not having done anything before I don't want to end up with my first time being a flop; literal or otherwise. What are the ways to prevent this happening?

If you
a) care about the person you are with
b) feel ready for the next level of a relationship
c) are not drunk :p:
then you should be fine. Just relax and go with the flow. Noone's first time is particularly impressive, but that doesn't stop it being fun. If you're really worried, talk to your partner about it, I'm sure they won't mind.

Excuse the anon post but well it's a sensitive subject :smile:

I don't entirely agree with what you just said though feefifofum. I fitted a, b and c and my first time was still a 'flop' several times over. It took around 5 attempts before I could stand to attention long enough. I was fine with other stuff, just when it came to entering I evidently got scared and down it went. Oh well. It's all good now.
