Normal variation: Male erections can occur spontaneously especially if you are thinking about a prior good sexual experience. In order to get a good erection with your partner you have to really like each other (attracted and want to feel like having sex). It is a bit of a psychological game which has to be spiced up by both the partners. It is best not to have sex if you are tired or bored with the idea. Good luck

Erections: The reason for the difficulty w/erections can be hormonal, vascular, or psychological, or some combo thereof. Most of the time for a young man the reason is psychological. Please start by seeing your doctor to identify/rule out physical causes. Then you can possibly follow up by seeing a clinical psychologist or licensed sex therapist. Peace and good health.
