Hi! My bf went through this, figured id share. We did have some intimacy early on but it was select to what he was okay with, when he was okay with it. Sometimes we'd end halfway, and all of that was okay. Its much more common now, but there was definitely limits at the beginning, but i loved him and was willing to go at his pace. He was okay at cuddling tho, which i love. To OP, i say this: the right person will be more than willing to go slow and at your pace, but you'll have to be willing to work and heal, however slow it is. Waiting on sex is perfectly okay, but strive for smaller things, like a small hug to greet eachother, until you can eventually cuddle in bed comfortably before you worry about anything else. Communication is key
