Have recentlyme a new man. Really like him. Chemistry is overwhelming .. hes a really nice guy.. I feel v passionately towards him. We do a lot of kissing touching etc but he just cant get an erection.. now it s early days as we ve only stayed together for two nights but each time no erection.. he does other things for me but am at a loss.. dont want to stop seeing him as I like him..
I asked if it was me and he said no.. I have no experience of this happening with anyone ever... he does have diabetes and I know there is a connection... its hard as I dont know him yet w

Diabetic men can get Viagra on prescription, so it is obviously a very common problem and most likely the cause of his ED rather than it being any reflection on you.

FFS don't mention Viagra!

You need to have a full and frank discussion about this. He needs to tell you his history in this respect, it sounds as if it's an ongoing thing and not down to you if he's mentioned meds.

If that's the case you need to find out what the diagnosis was and what was previously advised by the doctor. Work out whether another visit to the docs is required rather than self diagnosis and suggesting Viagra as his medical history may preclude him from being able to take this. Also simply coming out with a suggestion of Viagra belittles what he has been dealing with till now physically and mentally and could well damage your relationship.

Tread carefully as erectile disfunction is a very delicate subject.
