Not able to 'perform'

Ok so firstly Im going anonymous to protect my dignity (what's left of it anyway) and secondly, this is serious (even though its hilariously awkward) so genuine answers here guys.

But to the point, the past couple or so times I haven't been able to get fully hard which has made things difficult with my girlfriend. We've been going out for about 6 months now and recently started having sex. All was fine the first few times but recently I haven't been able to become fully hard and don't know why. And it can get a bit awkward between us when it happens *or doesn't happen*

I don't drink or do drugs, nothing like that, so I can't think about what it could be.

Yeah any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

It's a fairly common issue among guys tbh.

One possibility could be that you've been watching too much porn. The only way to have your brain reset is to cut all porn out of your life. The process can take some time depending on how many years you've been fapping to porn.

Could this also be an issue for girls too? I have been recently concerned about my own sex drive myself...

I could be an issue for anyone. It’s about what you think sex should be in your mind which is obviously very different from porn.

I don't know. Maybe?

For girls, being on the pill or having their period can affect their sex drive too so there's that.

Yeah I know what you mean, I stopped watching porn since abit after we started dating as she said it makes her uncomfortable. Not been an easy transition! But still doable so I don't know if that could be it.
