Don't give him a choice. This is one of those traumatic moments in a young man's life... The first time that absolutely flails.
Don't mother him... but you might have to prod him into bucking up and being more of a man, although you might want to be more sensitive in how you phrase it.
And if he fails to come around, you may just be better off without him. He may just have lots of other issues which affected his performance, which he feels unable to confide in anybody about. You can try, but unless he opens up, there's no way you can love him enough to make him come around to common sense or even just having the strength to overcome his issues.
You can only do what you can and make yourself available to him as a friend and an open listener. And if he can't confide in you and work with you, then perhaps he just needs time to be by himself. Not your fault, probably not really his fault either. Just the way it happens to be. C'est la vie.

right know he is insecure about himself just let him know that you love him, and don't bring up what happend then because it will just make him more insecure about himself, and his part in the relationship.

Try this.
Get him involved in foreplay. Teach him to bring you to orgasm without actual intercourse. Let him rebuild his confidence in his ability to please you, and the intercourse will come naturally after that.

nothing you can say will make it better, you continue to show him love and dont say anything about it, the more you bring it up the worse he'll feel.
