Hello I’m not sure how to ask this question but here goes. I’m 68 had 2 bouts of cancer over 6 years , my last bout was a complete prostate removal.
I still think about sex a lot but cannot get an erection until my nerves repair I’m told.
It is quite frustrating as my Mrs does not do intimacy any more (last 10 years) but I would still like some warmth in my life.
I don’t do promiscuous or have even had an affair in all my 40 year marriage, but would love to meet an understanding person or get advice where I could relax and enjoy another persons body and they mine.
I am straight but who knows.
Either way i’m not a lot of good to anyone with ED .
Hopefully I have not embarrassed myself by contacting you.
Kind regards Andrew

Good morning @andrew26,
Well done and thanks for reaching out. I can imagine recovery would take a while. Have they discussed timeframes with you? At the risk of sounding redundant, have you discussed your desire for intimacy with your wife?
I'm going to tag in our @PSHEexpert in case she's got any suggestions for you.Community Manager
