Losing your erection when putting on a condom

This is becoming an issue for me. I'm coming out of a monogonous relationship in which a condom was not a requirement (marriage). Now I'm single again and I cant get used to putting condom on. I lose my erection. Just trying to get a gauge on how common a problem this is and any suggestions on how to get over this barrier.

Looking for responses from guys and girls

It's pretty common. I remember hearing about it on an old (like 3-4 years ago) radio show.

I've had serious issues with this with two of my partners, and it occasionally happens to my husband.

My husband and I went back to using condoms after being ion the pill for 4 years. He doesn't lose his erection while putting on the condom, but does sometimes (rarely) lose his erection while making love while wearing one.

My ex had a problem with that. But he had a lot of problems so...
