So me & the wife planned a night of fun last night, and in readiness for a fab session, I've refrained from beating the ol' man this week, or at least ejaculating.
Still watched plenty of online porn in readiness, cock in hand, as I was simply 'well up for it', and in all honesty, even after 30yrs together, the sex is still fab when we both get going.
But here's the problem......and its not one thats happened before.
I had a couple of pints after Golf late yesterday afternoon, and then mid evening, we opened some wine, and while she went to shower and freshen up, I put on some porn for us as we usually do.
2/3 glasses later, and me showered too, we're well up for it, and she's down on me, and all's going well, BUt as soon as she gets on top to slide me deep, a certain 'lack of wood' appears, and from then on, I'm struggling to get it back, despite our best efforts......!
Eventually, I did get off by hand, with her oral encouragement, and we shrugged it off, but it was damned annoying.
So, the question is, .......at nearly 50, is this the start of something to deal with or perhaps just the result of too much anticipation or slightly too much alcohol ?!

Wine has had that effect on me in the past when I was nowhere near 50 so it may be that.

It happens , late 40's here . Try any of the little blue or yellow pill , see which works best for you . Check you cholesterol and blood sugar , and exercise- good health is important for good sex . A big plus these days , have you testosterone checked , mine was low and I wear the testosterone patch , at times its like being a kid again (or at least my 20's)

Not that I know shit from shinola when it comes to a man's head, but I'd say that you over-hyped the whole experience. You made a big fucking production out of it (emphasis on the fucking), and got yourself into a "perform or die" mode. Next time, don't make a big event out of it. I know you want to make a special evening out of it, but a lot can be said for just busting into the shower when she's in there and fucking her. Not waiting or anticipating some amazing, wet, raw, orgasmic experience with wine and a crisply laundered bed. I think you weren't hard because you were both planning some big "HOWDY DO?!" event.
Performance anxiety. We all get it. Women experience it, too. I've been clinically incapable of getting wet because men have tried to make it some big, planned, orchestrated event. When they do that, I'm basically cursed.
Carry on with the old soldier, buckaroo. There's not a damn thing wrong with your anatomy. You can't take a script to an improv.
Or I might be drunk right now and I can't help you. I'm not a miracle worker, nor a magician.

All good points, bar one ;-)
Not going down the 'little blue pill' route as yet, never needed as yet so I dont want to start living my life with a Blue Pill addiction just yet.
The drink might have been the issue, I dont drink that much these days, and always feel shite when I do, so perhaps the 3pints and 3 glasses of wine wasnt the ideal prep !
Mind you, a bit of wine for both of us always gets our creative juices flowing when we're in the mood......and has never caused problems before.
I'm pretty fit and healthy, and all the better for losing some weight recently too, so physical shape aint the issue, and Cholesterol is low. The 'Testosterone' Patch is something interesting, never heard of that, might explore.
Without a doubt, libido declines as we get older, so that might well be a welcome boost.........just might have to get the good lady to wear 'em too though !!??
SunShowers also makes a good point too - perhaps I did 'over-anticipate' things, although I'm not sure bursting in on her in the shower would be welcomed........but hey......might give it a go ;-)
Variety is the spice of life and all that...........

I'm with Sunshowers on this one. I wouldn't worry about until it starts to happen on a regular basis.

Alcohol definitely can kill wood-you should know that at almost 50! But maybe you're a dynamo so it never happened before. But why speculate, as someone said, buy some viagra. I use it at least half the time, and ALWAYS when I'm drinking. I don't have too many problems getting it up, but sometimes it will lose 20%, etc. When we switch to a different thing. With the viagra, you never have that problem. To me, it's just another accessory. I get it online pretty cheap, I think like $1.20 per pill.

Pretty sure you're all right and the drink was to blame,...
In all honesty, although it was only 3 pints and 3 glasses of wine, I did feel pretty shit the morning after, such is my intolerance of booze nowadays.
In fact, its frequently crossed my mind to not drink at all anymore, it just isnt that important for me these days, never was really. Sure a couple of cold pints after a game of golf is
very pleasant, so that might be my only vice, but there has been lager in the fridge for months that I havent touched.
It has happened before to 'some degree' , but when ive been decidedly drunker, but this time I thought I was primed and ready ! Obviously not.
I think a couple of glasses of Sauvignon will be just the fuse from now one..........

I think this is the WRONG approach! Men need to change how they think about their sexual health.
Sexual performance tends to degrade with age, but that doesn't mean you have to be resigned to losing it. Rather than wait for a problem, be PROACTIVE and treat you sexual health like any other workout/exercise program.
There are a number of things you can do to preserve the performance of your penis. Rather than think of it as a crutch to be avoided, think of it as a workout to maintain and strengthen and preserve.
Here's a great resource, every man should start to pay more attention to his sexual health by the age of 50 (sooner if you are diabetic or a bicycle rider). Using PDE5 inhibitors and a vacuum erection device can help to maintain the flexibility and size and shape that's important for preserving sexual performance.
'Use it or lose it' should include 'work it'. You'll be happy you did and so will she!! Don't wait, start TODAY!!

Could very well be the alcohol. Still, at 50s you may want to think about DHEA supplementation. Also Twin labs makes a product called Male Fuel and there's also always Horny Goat Weed. All of these are found at better vitamin shops and such.
I'm not sure what your fitness regime is, but I've found that weight training tends to boost my desire and staying power.

Rod, the point I was trying to make is that he doesn't necessarily need to jump on the Viagra/Cialis band wagon just yet. This may be a once in a blue moon type thing. He said it's never happened before. I'm taking his word for it.
Also, he now talks about 3 pints and 3 glasses of wine. Wine has a higher alcohol content than beer. Typically 12-14% compared to 5-10%. Added to the fact that he had waited all week for this encounter.

^ Yep, I agree with all of that, but the point I was trying to make was don't wait for it to 'happen on a regular basis'. Men need to change how they view sexual function. Men tend to stick their head in the sand (some choose a darker place than sand!) and think if they ignore it they don't have to deal with it.
I don't care if it's a regular thing or a once in a lifetime event. He's at an age when he needs to start being aggressive about preserving his sexual health. He's working out to keep the rest of his body in good shape, don't forget his little (big?) friend. Actually, my experience is the big ones are most vulnerable. It takes much more hydrodynamics to get the big ones up.
Women tend to do a much better job of taking care of their breasts and all the other female parts. They could all do themselves and their male partners a BIG favor if they encouraged their guy.
Male sexual function tends to only go in one direction.......down! He needs to understand how his dick works and what causes it not to work, and start an exercise program to keep it in great working order. Don't wait for it to be a regular problem. Start before it happens the first time. Be proactive!!
It's important for guys to understand their sexual function is important (regardless if you're a creationist or evolutionist) and so they were all given great functionality with lots of reserve at puberty. That big reservoir means when they start to see things going down, it means they've probably lost a major portion of their reserve. If they seek help to preserve the reservoir when it's still full, they'll have many year of FUCKING FUN!!!!! DON'T WAIT......Work that fucking thing or it won't be fucking anything!

Thx all.........update.
Well, all worked fine last night, despite some anxious moments when I wondered whether the ol' fella was gonna let me down again, but thats the power of the mind eh ?
Despite that, once we started, no worries, and all good fun was had ,.........and although I'd had a couple of beers late afternoon post Golf again, I made sure I didnt neck a lot more
before the fun started ;-)
Keeping well away from Pills just yet, I think once started on that path, its difficult to turn back ?
As far as scorpiousdeus's suggestion of 'weight training' ..........well, thx for that, but it aint my bag, hate gyms.
I'm in good shape, miles of Dog walking every day and plenty of Golf, - Doc says thats just perfect :-)
Nearly down to 200lbs too, which is as low as I was when I left school at 18...........so chuffed with that.
:-)

Glad to hear you had a fun time and all worked as designed. But, don't be afraid of PDE5 inhibitors. The slippery slope idea is wrong. Just like you walk to keep your heart and legs in shape, you need to develop a program of exercising your 'ol' fella' too. You didn't wait for your first heart attack to start walking, don't wait for your dick-attack to start paying attention to your ol' fella. Start your dick healthy activities today. Enjoy!

Just as a note to those who think pills are the magic answer - they aren't always. Maybe taking viagra and experiencing a rock solid hard on for 3 days is normal for some people, but when I tried it the results were negligable. A lot of these issues are psycological, rather than physical.

Rod,
I appreciate your imput - but in all honesty, if the old fella is still working, why would you encourage anyone to 'start' taking Inhibitors anyway ? Sure, it might give me a harder erection perhaps, just like the old days, but in all honesty, apart from the 1 occasion, its generally hard enough ;-)
I would be concerned that once I or anyone else started 'relying' on little blue pills, youre going to become a slave to them for a long time.
As well as that, I do experience some taccychardia when I have alcohol these days (high pulse etc), which the Doctor says isnt uncommon and shouldnt be a concern, but with that in mind, I wouldnt want to take drugs for the sake of it, I gather it can have an effect on Blood pressure/Cardio etc.
Fortunately, my wife is also losing a shed load of weight at the moment, so that should be just the boost I need, especially in the lingerie I have planned for her ;-)

^ I'm not a MD and I'm not recommending taking PDE5 inhibitors. I'm only suggesting men be proactive about their sexual health.
Many men get a colonoscopy at age 50. It establishes a baseline and a basis for scheduling future colonoscopies. I'm suggesting men should also schedule a sexual health checkup that should include at minimum an ultrasound of their penis and an assessment of erectile tissue and arterial and venous blood flows. If you are diabetic or a bicycle rider start earlier. If there's trouble on the horizon, this type checkup will identify it and establish a baseline for future monitoring.
Erections are good for erections. Nothing helps maintain your ability to get erections as just having more erections. Good quality erections! Making sure your equipment is all working correctly and identifying any tuneup opportunities early before they become a problem would help to avoid irreversible problems later on.
If you're not having daily erections you should be. Just like going for a run each morning for your heart, you need to be sure your penis is getting stretched and filled with blood daily. If someone else isn't getting you up, you need to make a point of doing it yourself. Use it or lose it! Your penis will tend to shrink if it's not stretched regularly. Work with your urologist/PCP/Sexual Medicine specialist to develop an age and general fitness appropriate program for preserving your sexual health. That may include PDE5 inhibitors or regular use of a vacuum erection device or just a regularly scheduled masturbation routine or ???? This is particularly important for any man without a regular/everyday partner. It's like brushing your teeth every morning. It just needs to be part of the routine.
If you're starting to have issues, don't shy away from them. PDE5 inhibitors aren't a crutch. A daily low dose can help with your normal nightly erections while you sleep. Many men take a daily low dose aspirin routine for their heart. Some would benefit from daily low dose Cialis also. See your doctor.
I'm just suggesting to be proactive and pay as much or more attention to your penis as you do to your heat or even your colon! It's much easier to talk with your doctor about erections when you still get them than to ask about them when you can't. Don't wait. Start paying attention to your sexual health TODAY!!

I dunno, I have had wood problems in the past, when I get really excited I am rock solid, when I am stressed I have trouble getting an erection and it has nothing to do with my partner. My mind is in other places, at work or something else, just not always on sex. At times I can be a sexual dynamo, but when work gets stressful I lose interest in sex and I am a lame performer. I'm far from the 18 year old pussy monger I used to be, I still love sex but I have other stuff going on that is more important.
