Hello hello - is there anybody out there?

I'm very aware that he probably feels pressure to perform, and I'm doing my very best to not put pressure on him. In fact, talking about the issue never does any good at all, so I'm trying to just back off, leave him alone, and find other ways to comfort myself.

I'm not sure leaving him alone is the point. But taking the pressure off. Maybe rent a video that is not XXX. Something this isn't explicitly porn but is sexual. Basic Instinct comes to mind but that is far too transparent. The idea being that it gets his mojo going in a way that he can justify as not pressuring.

Or maybe exercising together? Yoga? I dunno. But I know it is random times that I find my W totally sexy. Not when she is trying.

I just wonder sometimes, how long is this going to go on? How long can he hold out?

Longer than you think. If sex isn't on his mind, he is not holding out.
