Does this happen to other men?

is it just me? I understand the importance of protection during sex, but every time I am about to I am hard as a rock. then the condom goes on and I get soft. Almost instantly.

  • Don’t use one anymore as I’m not dating multiple women. With a condom I usually stay hard, however I do remember the times I’d take too long putting it on or think…uuugh I don’t want to wear it, or not like the feeling of it and I’d drop to semi hard. I think it’s psychological and esp since you are not used to it

  • Im thick and when i wore regular condoms it would dig into my skin and really not allow me to get hard. Switched to magnums and it helped.

    Now I dont wear them and its all the more better

    • That’s what my problem I think is. The thickness. Maybe I should try the magnums. Thanks

  • Don't feel bad, it happens to a lot of men. One reason I never use them.

    • And this is what I think I need to find. I was married for 10 years and never had to worry about using a condom. Now that I’m dating again I’m scared to catch something. Or of getting her pregnant.

  • Nope...

  • I haven't had that happen, but it sounds like nerves are causing it. Maybe try using sensitive condoms?

  • Have her use her mouth to roll the condom on... you'll stay hard, believe me.

  • I’m not having sex

  • I don't use condoms anymore, but when I did I stayed hard

  • It may be psychological and it may be physical. Try a thinner condom, that you can feel more during sex.

    • It happens before I even get a chance to put it in. It’s odd. When I was a teen I had no problem lol I could almost get hard on command 😂😂

  • It happens to many because achieving erection, they go trough the process of opening the condom package. During the process, concentration is lost.

    Possible solution: unpack the condom, leave it very near you; then just put it on as you achieve erection.

    • *because once achieving (...)

  • It’s psychological, because you know it’s not going to feel as good as without and you are about to perform so it’s anxiety

  • Putting on a condom takes away from the passion and natural instinct of sex. It makes it seem more like a bad thing or dangerous thing and your brain switches from the fun to the potential dangers and it makes you lose interest sexually.

  • Maybe you just don't get anything out of using a condom. It's not as pleasurable to you at least subconsciously so your dick reacts that way
