Brief Answer:
who can masturbate well, can do sex normally.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for information.

Most of the young guys get fear after relationship with girlfriend. You did not involve in real sex anytime. You do not have any stress or any physical factor that can suggest any problem to future sex life. Small erection than earlier is not at all any indication for problematic sex life. It happens sometime. And many times it is just perception that erection is small.

As you have tried oral sex with girlfriend and stopped your regular masturbation you are not able to enjoy the orgasm what you should enjoy and that can be one of the reasons for reduce interest in sex. Other reason might be fear of failure in sex after marriage.

Understand the basic fact that masturbation and sex are almost equal process only technique differs. If you can enjoy one, you can enjoy other also as machinery for both process are same and normal. Only difference is, in one there is your hand which is stimulating and in other female vagina. At present you do not have real experience of sex so it is not possible to get judgement about your performance. You have anxiety regarding your sex life after marriage; I assure you that it will be absolutely fine. Just reassure yourself that you are normal and can sex normally with partner if given a chance in relax environment. Before starting sexual life, if you feel, you can have a session with your doctor to deal with performance anxiety. In that you have to try to avoid thinking about performance and just need to enjoy the romance and act.

Feel free to discuss further.
