Over the past month, I've found a girl that I'm both physically and emotionally attracted to. During the past month, we've had sex 5-6 times and I've been able to go and last throughout (including one night with multiple sessions). In the past 2 attempts at sex, I've been losing my erection right as I'm about to put on a condom. I can hold the erection during foreplay & leading up to sex, but as soon as I make the move to put on a condom, it goes away. As it continues to happen I get more and more frustrated and scared that there's a bigger issue here. From what little research I've done this is due to anxiety, which I can see being the cause considering we've had intercourse before. We're both 25, physically fit, runners & eat healthy.

Any input on how to overcome the anxiety or things to try would be greatly appreciated.
Since you run, already, you cannot make it better for anxiety from the standpoint of physiology. You might try anxiolytic medications prior to the act - you will need a prescription for them. I have never heard of them used in this particular context, but people do report using them successfully in similar contexts, when they need to perform and are scared of failing - say, before doing a big presentation at a conference.

The main problem related to your anxiety is that you get scared, then you get more anxious, and the rest is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Since you are scared that there might be a bigger issue, you should seek advice from your GP. Also, ask the GP to prescribe Cialis - not that you should look forward to using Cialis for life, starting at age 25, no, but as an extra assurance to get over being scared. Maybe if you have a few successes with Cialis, you can then drop Cialis and do fine left to your own devices.

Also, give her orgasms with your mouth and hands - not only will it be good for her, but your successes giving her orgasms will work towards alleviating your anxiety which stems from your fear of failure.
