Performance anxiety issues during the initial stages of dating?

How did you overcome the fears of not able to satisfy your partner during initial stages of relationship?

I had a partner that had this!
When it happened, we’d slow down & divert over to just making out and feeling close and comfortable and trusting to each other. It got his mind right and helped him calm down.
It’s confusing probably for the guy because he wants to perform and enjoy himself and be with his partner but his body says no!
So just try another form of being close and loving together for a bit and it will lighten the mood

Awww. Doing this with my guy friend now. Just going at his pace and slow until he feels able to calm amd let go. He has ADHD and gets anxious and in his head a lot!

You stop making that a priority. It is not as important as you think.
