Unbelievable stories

Post a new topicby livingwith on Fri Sep 07, 2007 5:38 pm


I happened to accidently stumble upon this website and was totally surprised at some of the letters I read. I had no conceivable idea that such a large number of males suffered from ED and from any/all ages and walks of life. It made me wonder if anyone is doing anything to fight and/or cure this affliction.

For the women who are leaving their respective boyfriends/husbands it makes me wonder if their love for their boyfriend/husbands were nothing more than sexually connected to begin with. Wh...Read the full article

I hear you loud and clear, My husband is one of the millions of men who is suffering from ED at the age of 60, however it started at the age of 54. Sex is not the only thing that is important in a relationship or marriage, but when your soul mate won't talk to you about the problem what does one do? I have done everything that I can to let him know that I love him unconditionally and I always will. We were childhood sweethearts, started to school together in the first grade. After school he went to the army, I moved to another state, eventually we met and married someone else, both ended in divorce and thirty some years later we started dating and married each other four years ago. Sex was fine and suddenly there was no sex, no affection, not even an "I Love You". I am waiting patiently for him to realize that a marriage is not built on sex alone, but he doesn't even talk about sex. He gets in the bed, turns his back and goes to sleep. Maybe he doesn't know that its not all about sex. I'm more concerned about his health than sex. He has gone from 178 ponds to 156 pounds in about a month and we don't know why. His doctor says his weight is good for his height(5'10) but I can count his ribs and his shoulders are so thin that his suit coats hang off of him. I wonder if the doctor has told him something that he is not telling me. But for sure the lack of sex would not cause me to leave him. He is irritable and lashes out at me sometimes for no reason, that verbal abuse just might make me think about leaving because verbal abuse can lead to physical abuse and I survived one abusive marriage and vowed never to endure another. Maybe another man can convince him that not having sex is not the end of the world.
