Why cant i pee in a restroom with others around?

Question

I really dont understand what my problem is im a guy and i cant pee in public. im not nervous of the people around me i just cant pee, the urge will go away. not just urinals but stalls too. i dont know why this happens. is there anything i can do? i could care less about the people around me but my brain just wont allow it to happen. or if theres just one person in the bathroom i feel awkward because then i get nervous because he can tell im not peeing and that gets embarrasing going in standing there, not doing nething and then just leave.

Answer 1

It is a guy thing. I think.

For me sometimes it just takes longer. I get tense without actually knowing it. Then you need to just relax and let it flow bro!

Answer 2

this is just like the movie "waiting"

p.s. we're not psychiatrists. go find one.  

Answer 3

Shy bladder.

Quite a few guys have something similar.  Always use a stall, never the urinal, and relax.  Relaxing is the key, it may take a little while.  Depending on what is going on, where you are, etc  you won't be able to always wait 5 or 10 minutes to relax though.  Try to find a restroom that is unpopulated, like at the mall use one of the department store restrooms, this will allow you to take your time and not have intrusions from others.

Answer 4

Your perfectly normal, my boyfriend is the same exact way, its probably just a guy thing..
