I am not sure if I should be posting this here or somewhere else but here it goes.
A few days ago I met a woman and we were hitting it off, however somehow I was unable to get "hard" and or "stimulated" even though she was pretty attractive. Anyways I was wondering if I have some sort of medical issue or if the root cause of my problem was psychological in nature. In case you were wondering this has never happened to me before and I am currently 24 years old so I am not quite sure what was going on since I don't think ED is common among men in my age bracket.
Anyways I am just looking for advice here, so please no stupid comments or jokes, please.
Quit posting on public forums and go see a real doctor IF you are having a real issue.
I do plan on seeing a doctor eventually. The only reason why I posted this is because I know there are a lot of medical professionals who post here who might be knowledgeable about the subject and could help me.

Admittingly I do watch some porn on occasion since I have been kind of busy lately which is preventing me from meeting new people, but I am not addicted to it so I am not sure if that is correlated or not.
in young men (untreated) diabetes and/or starting vascular/cardiac problems can be a cause of ED , I allready posted this for someone else on the health forum

When you say "we were hitting it off," I picture standing around and chatting with great interest. Were you trying to have sex, or was she touching you, and you were physically unresponsive? Or are you concerned because you were talking to an attractive woman who seemed interested in you, yet you felt nothing sexual toward her at the time? Thank you for clarifying.

I suggest you try doing so before you visit the doctor. ED seems to be more and more common among men in our generation due to the most explicit scenes being literally a click away. I've read alot of success stories of men who successfully revamped their drive by eliminating porn and significantly reducing the frequency of self pleasure. It's worth a try mate.
It could be as simple as a "new" and first real case of the nerves. Be careful! Overthinking one episode-- could lead to an even bigger problem!
A visit to a local urologist is always a good idea--especially if you've never been to one.
