Hi there, 


Sorry to hear about it


Is there something going on? Are you afraid to initiate? Can you give some more information

At this point yes because this has happened where I loose the immersion midway and she is hurt and feels undesired

  Have you had a discussion with her.

Being honest can help both of you as anxiety only seems to make this worse.   I can tell you from a wife's perspective when a spouse is honest and open about it that really helps their partner.   When we finally spoke of this issue, I no longer felt it was my fault of I was not enough or attractive. Once a person gets that in their head it makes things worse, trust me.   All the items add up until it causes more issues then if we just tackled the difficult subject early on. 

Have you sought any medical advice as sometimes things can be helped for example if hormones are off balance etc. Once the fear of "what if" is gone and you can find a path forward.

There’s a lot of negativity surrounding you lately, and I strongly feel it’s coming from someone very close to you. It’s affecting your peace, energy, and even blocking certain blessings meant for you. If you don’t mind, and if you can permit me, I would really like to tell you more about what I’m sensing and probably share some solutions that may help you overcome it.

Hi Man @tealComputer0730

Listen , it happens more often than to think.

There are many reasons, but really you need first to make sure it is not something physical .

You have to ask yourself : is it happen only with her or you are anxious about the adult time in general?

Any past experience with her you think you it might make you lose confidence ?

Any changes happened later ? Do you have problems outside the bedroom?

You feel you are forced to the adult time ? Or you have the desire but anxiously doing it ?

Hey you can talk
