It’s time once more for “Expensive Wendy Updates,” a function the place folks I’ve given recommendation to up to now tell us whether or not they adopted the recommendation and the way they’re doing now. Immediately we hear from Fed Up with Flaccid, a lady who was questioning her relationship along with her boyfriend of two years due to his reluctance to suggest, his proclivity for kinky intercourse, and his erectile dysfunction (that he blamed her for, regardless of a medical prognosis). A 12 months and a half later, are they nonetheless collectively? Her replace beneath:
Additionally, I wished to say, over 50% of males get ED after age 50 if not earlier than. That is one thing we should always speak extra brazenly about. I feel a lot of society retains it hush, hush which makes it worse. It’s nothing to be ashamed of, however as a result of we not often discuss ED, neither males or girls know what to do when it occurs. Clearly a person with ED ought to go to the physician, however they’re typically ashamed to take action. Women and men ought to associate to determine methods to get pleasure with out an erection.
In any case, I simply wished to make clear and say sure, girls, I did the plain and left him, however it was an advanced determination as a result of a person having ED mustn’t imply we robotically go away.
Thanks,
Single and Happier
Thanks in your replace and for clarifying your authentic message. Re-reading that column which, apparently I’ve posted many occasions!, I see that my response was, certainly, very simplistic. If I had been to reply your letter once more, I’d let you know that the ED is the least of the problems you laid out. His lack of curiosity in marrying you, his gaslighting you, and your mis-matched sexual pursuits are all causes to go away as effectively. I’m glad you bought out and hope you’re doing effectively at the moment!
