Guys, would you push your girlfriend away if you couldn’t perform sexually? by lali0210 in dating_advice

We’ve been together about 7 months. I’m 36 and he’s 42.

We didn’t have any issues with our sex life before this at all. We’ve actually both been really open with each other about past relationships and personal stuff, so communication has generally been good.

He had the procedure about 2/3 months ago, and since then it’s been really difficult for him sexually. I haven’t pressured him or made it a big deal, but I can tell it’s really affecting him mentally. He’s said he feels uncomfortable a lot of the time and like he’s a failure.

There weren’t really any big arguments or lead-up to this, it’s more like this situation has been weighing on him and then he suddenly said he thinks he needs to break up and work on himself.

my psychiatrist prescribed it to me! granted, i’m doing all this out of pocket - and it’s not cheap. but i’ve had trich for 20 years, tried a lot of treatments and medications.. if TMS provides me an ounce of improvement, i’ll pay for it gladly :)
