From everything that I have read and experienced, I would agree with this. I know it's not always the cure though, as I dated one guy that was in the most incredible shape...really took care of himself, I worked out at the same gym so I know what kind of workout he did. But I was so disappointed with events in the bedroom. He blamed it on coffee, or alcohol, or whatever he might have drank that night (and he never had more than one drink!), but the fact was that he needed some help. He just wouldn't accept that he was already having this problem, and he was just mid-40's. I felt bad for him.

I suspect once it becomes mental, the fear of failure just continues to keep it from working. This guy is (probably) the perfect canidate for a ED pill to help him get past the fear of failure.

That doesn't make any sense to me. If that were the issue it seems like a better plan would be to talk to someone rather than pop a pill. I don't like popping pills to address problems that can be resolved without it. Too many people taking meds for the wrong reasons, these days.

HE MUST have had some sort of medical issues because {I mean this with the utmost respect] I know what you look like and youre HOT! The issue has to be medical!

Once the fear and anxiety of it not working is planted in a guys brain, it does become an issue. He knows when he's about to be asked to perform and he starts to worry about it and the more he worries the less it works.

The little Blue pill just gives him the confidence that it can work on demand and going to work as needed. Once he regains that confidence, life is good again. But It then can become a crutch.

Oh shucks, Capt. Dan. If I were younger, I would be blushing. But I'm OLD. Thanks though, sweetie.

Oh I know sometimes--often--it's not something they did or didn't do. But it sure doesn't hurt to stay in shape from the start as prevention is usually the best medicine. ED isn't the only thing you could say that about. Many diseases and disorders fall in the category. If I'm wrong, so are the doctors I stole these lines from.

The first place to start would be getting a digital prostrate check AND a PSA[prostate specific antigen]test.

As I predicted at the outset of this thread, no man admitted using Viagra and almost no women admitted their man uses it. No surprise there. Viagra is the most presribed drug there is in North America yet apparently no man uses it. LOL!

And I have to reiterate that being fit oftentimes has little to do with ED. I am an active marathoner and most of the people I train with are men who run 60-70 miles a week. They are extremely fit. Some of their wives and GF's have openly said they use Viagra or should be using it since they have great trouble getting it up. And most of these guys are 40 and under.

Oh, I'm sure they do. But is that an appropriate thing to confess on a message board, when you get right down to it? If I were a guy, or if my S.O. did indeed take Viagra, I wouldn't let the rest of the world know about it. Even anonymously.

Certain issues are extremely private. I think that most of us can agree that some men do indeed Viagra, and that there's nothing wrong with taking it. Just like many women go the HRT route when symptoms of menopause kick in. It's just not anyone's business.
