I accidentally made my boyfriend more self conscious about his penis than he already is how do I help him fix this?

So at the beginning of our relationship I had no reaction to the size of his penis when we first started messing around. Which I typically don’t have a reaction when I see a penis. Am I supposed to? Anyways this made him question why and if I have seen or had sex with someone who had a bigger penis than him. I said yes but I also told him that his was perfect for me and the biggest just hurt and overall was not a good experience. But he didn’t believe me when I said it was perfect and he said that I was just telling him what he wanted to hear even though I thought it was perfect when I saw it for the first time I just didn’t voice it because I am typically awkward when it comes to sexual situations because of bad experiences. So now he’s continuously in his head about this because I explained to him why the biggest I’ve had hurt. He now wants to hit the same spot that made me very uncomfortable and in pain and he feels like if he doesn’t his penis won’t be sufficient enough for me even though I told him it would be. He’s also afraid to have sex now because of this. I’m not sure what to do or who to talk to about this because I don’t think this is a very normal situation. Any input would be greatly appreciated on how to make him believe that his penis will be good enough for me.

  • It's a difficult one. I'm too honest and told my boyfriend that he has a nice size penis but my ex was bigger. That didn't go down well but he isn't insecure so wasn't an issue. I have been with guys who thought they had big dicks when really they didn't. Iv wanted to tell them but never did.

    Your boyfriend is very insecure and immature and inexperienced. Just be strait with him... their are a billion dicks in this world and they're all different... its how he uses it not how big it is.

  • You must not have said anything about your previous partner’s size. Knowing how self-conscious men are about their size.

    The best thing you can do now is show off how you can’t get your hands and lips off his penis. Just make him feel like he’s all you want and that he’s the best you’ve had. And show with your actions that he’s all you need and crave.

  • No , this is abnormally self-conscious. He needs to get therapy, or better yet just grow the F up. I'm well-endowed but I'm still not stupid enough to think I'm the biggest guy on the planet. I'd also say anyone who needs a woman to comment upon first seeing his junk probably doesn't have junk worth commenting on. It's not your job to make him stop being a child. If he can't move on, you should. This spells problems down the road.

  • I wish more guys would embrace the fact that being told by the woman you love that your penis is smaller -- in some cases, much smaller -- than other guys she's dated in the past, is one of the most beautiful things you'll ever hear. If it were really that big a problem for her, she wouldn't say anything; she'd just stop dating you.

  • You didn’t do anything wrong, he’s just insecure. But if you’re being honest with yourself, he probably is insecure for a reason lol.

  • My boy needs therapy. His lack of confidence is not your doing.

  • you didn't make him self conscious. he is self conscious and he was going to be regardless. he is insecure about his penis. that isn't your fault and there is little you can do about it. it's something he has to get over on his own.

    you've done your part to reassure him. if he can't accept what he is and find happiness in what he is then that's on him.

  • This is a “him” issue, not a “you” issue. You’ve already given him enough information to feel better about this. There’s really nothing more you can say.

    He really was wrong to even ask you this question in the first place, with him being this insecure about his size.

    You didn’t mention how long you’ve been together, but if this continues and is causing problems in your sex life, you might have to part from him due to being sexually incompatible.

  • A lot of guys are fuck up about their penis size. You didn't cause this it was there before you. You can tell him he's fine but it's up to him to get over it in the end.
