Yes, it is possible. It is a real thing. I had it a few times in my 20s with girls I really really liked the first time we got it on (or tried to). It sucked, and there were a couple of times where it weighed on my head and it was tough to get out.

Hasn't happened to me in ages, probably because sex is less of a huge deal, thank god.

It's definitely a thing. There's a ton of factors, which could be as simple as "not in the mood"...it doesn't necessarily have to be nervousness/anxiety (though those are big ones too).

It's a comfort/confidence thing. Sometimes you can think too much about trying to satisfy or impress the girl, and it impedes the act. I think a lot of guys (more than they are willing to admit) experience it when they are first starting out. But once you get more comfortable with the idea of it and actually have some confidence about what you're doing, it tends to fade away.

Sometimes if he's been erect too long, the part that constricts and causes hardness becomes fatigued and won't work for a while.

Ideally. Sex is about passion and comfortability. Once you achieve those things, it usually becomes a non-issue. If your guy is having trouble, try to make him feel comfortable and confident.

Lol. Sometimes it's easier to bang if you don't really care for a girl in that way. It's true a lot of us guys get nervous around girls we really like.

It may, it may not. Sometimes there is absolutely nothing you can do.

Sex is in the head. There is a reason people say the brain is the biggest sexual organ. That is for the good things, and the bad.
