Trouble with Erections - December 19th 2011, 04:17 AM

So, I'm 18 but when I make physical contact with this girl I like, I still get erections that I can't control. I've tried masturbating a couple hours before I meet up with her but that doesn't help. I try to hide it but I'm sure she's noticed a few times. To give some background on the situation, we like each other and she's never freaked out about it but I would still like your opinions on this.

1) For girls, if you like a guy but you're not ready for sex, is it gross or weird that he gets erections around you?

2) For guys, do you have any tips on controlling erections? I've asked this before but the tips didn't really help.

It depends on the girl. Honestly, it wouldn't make me too uncomfortable, as long as the guy didn't try to push anything on me. That's when it would get weird.

the best way to not have an erection around her is to sperm when you masturbated a few hours before and instead of it being a few hours before make it about 40 minutes before.
hope i helped

I agree with the above poster. Instead of doing it hours before, try within the hour or half hour before you meet up. Waiting hours it's pretty obviously you'll get an erection because it's been so long.

If I were in this situation, I'd be sort of flattered. I just would hope that that person wouldn't try to push it on me.

I wouldn't be freaked out. As long as you don't say you want to have sex or anything, then I don't see a problem if she doesn't mind either.

I really wouldn't worry about it that much. It is a normal, natural phenomenon that happens to guys when they are aroused. I'm not a girl, and I'm not straight, but if I was with another boy and he got hard in front of me, I'd probably just think "he's just in a NRB [no reason boner] state right now, or he's attracted to me! Big deal!!

Re: Trouble with Erections - December 20th 2011, 11:36 PM

I also have had that problem in the past when I am with a very attractive girl (and it sucks, I know). I usually will just try to stay seated as much as possible, and for these occasions that I know I may have a erection I will wear some sort of caki PANTS. I would avoid any type of shorts. I also am very skilled at being able to walk normal - however having my erection tucked between my legs. Just a few thoughts or options...


Best wishes,
Chris

I wouldn't really be bothered by it, although I would be rather disconcerted after a while, mainly because I would think he got turned on by me all the time, which is nice, but it would make me worry he isn't really listening to me or looking at me for me. Hopefully, though, we would both be honest enough to discuss this and figure out that isn't the case. When in doubt about what someone really thinks or feels, it's best to talk it out instead of making your own (possibly completely incorrect) conclusions.

Re: Trouble with Erections - December 21st 2011, 07:31 AM

I've had exes that have had erections while they were with me, and it didn't bother me. One of my exes tried to hide it cause it embarrased him, but we talked about it. I told him that it didn't bother me and it's completely normal. Not weird at all in my opinion.

I won't be freaked out. Its a natural reaction that guys can't control. And well, I have had weird conversations with my guy friends where they have told me all about the things that can make them have an erection. Conversations like that one have made me more and more open minded about lots of things that can't be controlled!

For girls, if you like a guy but you're not ready for sex, is it gross or weird that he gets erections around you?

for me i wouldn't mind at all even if i may not be ready for sex i like it idk it lets me know that ur at lest in one way attached to me just
my way of thought
im not sure about other girls


victoria bankson the person who will always be there for you

they tell me they love me
and yet
they use me then leave me
in an old scary ally
where i have to hide
to stay alive then
on day the new prince will come
and i believe that hes different
but he does the same thing all the rest have done
then comes the boy i've known all my life
he takes me home and teaches me to live
and we end up falling in love
NOW if only i could believe that

I'd be more concerned if you didn't get an erection.

For me, only in certain conversations would it be inappropriate for him to become hard, other than that, I love it when my boyfriend (past) have gotten hard around me.
