I wasn’t even sure if I should post such a personal subject – revealing such a touchy subject as that. Like you, I was in a very long relationship (15 years) in which the problem disappeared almost completely. Then I was single again and it seemed worse than ever. The one thing that has helped is being open about it. Hiding it only seems to make it worse. Knowledge is power, and in our case it doesn’t hurt being combined with a little Viagra/Cialis too! I wish you the best of luck in the future, and I deeply appreciate your thoughtful words. Hey Ken,

I have worked through it with several women including my ex-wife. (married 18 years) After the initial few sexual encounters with each of them, I was able to relax and have a normal sex life. After my divorce, I had planned an encounter with a new girlfriend that was going to be cut short on time. She emailed me (innocently) that I had ""better be good" because we only had a few hours. You know what happened. She was unable to cope and we broke off. I now tell any new partner in advance for the exact reasons that you mention. I had a highly sexual girlfriend (6 - 8 orgasms per session - twice a day) I'm 54 now and could not have kept up with that pace without Viagra. That drug has been a Godsend for me as I am a very unselfish partner and focus on her needs at all times. (adds to the P.A.) My abilities with Viagra are almost limitless. (no, I don't own Pfizer stock) You're right that this problem can help weed out women of little character but I consider that a small positive. Excellent post. You could not have described my problem any better. Thanks I have suffered from P.A. my entire life. I have worked through it with several women including my ex-wife.
