Healthy Sex Support Group
This community is dedicated to an open discussion about healthy sex and sharing thoughts and feelings about sexuality and improving one's sex life. Most active adults desire to have an active and fulfilling sex life, both for themselves and also their partner. Here we discuss common sexual challenges faced by both men and women.
Hi there, my first post so not sure what to expect but here goes.
i had a fairly serious illness when I was a child and it's left me with problems with my nervous system and as a result deterioration of my erections over the years.
if I take 100mg of Viagra I can just about get an erection but it leaves me feeling rough the next day or so.
My wife has been supportive over the years with the lack of sex between us but she's an attractive 53 year old and I don't think it's fair on her to suffer loss of sex because of my problems.
I was thinking of discussing with her to take a lover from a dating site so she had regular sex but wondered what others thought ?

I have toys. So the ones I have not used or need any more, are gone in the trash. One of my toys is just a regular hand held massager with an attachment. The other is a real insertable toy. This morning I ordered a new toy with attachments. It is small and has a brush like attachment and the other looks like a rose with a tiny tongue. I'll get it in about 2 weeks. Rechargable and...

I can't believe this has gone on this long. So I don't have much hope of getting a tech job, but I saw an educational job that I thought might be really good. It would have been working at a university supporting high school students who are taking college classes. I did a mock interview with a friend and prepared extensively. It was at the university that I graduated from. I was very excited...


Also are you prepared for how you’ll feel if she does take on a lover? You are thinking of her needs and that’s great but you also have to consider how this will affect you.
Some couples are able to make situations like this work, so if is the route you choose to take I hope it works out well for you.
A penis becomes erect when the outflow of blood through the veins is less than the inflow through the arteries, so making it become engorged. I find that what I am thinking about usually has the desired effect, sometimes helped a little by gently touching the veins at the base to reduce outflow of blood.
Arran007, nice to think of her, but there are other ways other then another man. Be romantic, plan dates, make supper, give her a massage, run her a scented bath, buy her small thoughtful gifts, or make them, just be a caring, loving man. You can please her orally or by using adult toys, not 100% the same, but effective. Remind her it isn't her fault. Also, touch her often. Not sexually, but a hand on her shoulder, or around her waist, play with her hair, etc. Because if you don't touch her often and she forgets what it feels like and someone else comes along and does it, she will feel something new and that won't be good. If you suggest another man, he could essentially replace you in all aspects. You don't want that to happen.
This might be something to consider with your wife. I feel tons better with mine even before benefits for sex with a partner. I have more tone in my dick with the pump style implant and can pump it slightly so it isn't always completely limp, but firm enough to feel good without having to be fully erect. When I am ready, I can pretty easily get myself erect and comfortably stay that way for as long as I want for sex or masturbation. The downside, maybe not for all guys, is that ifyou normally have some good spontaneous erections, this can take that away for some guys, and the only hardons are the ones you make by using the device.
If you can't have surgery check online for the Elator. It is a little external splint you attach to your dick that can possibly make you hard enough and supported enough to penetrate and please your wife, and you could make that harder with a condom or two or a silicone sleeve.
The Elator is a little pricey, but much less than any surgery. Check the internet under penile splints for other similar options.
Take care, dude. Women are smarter than us and know what is in your heart is more important for satisfying them than just what junk you are hauling in your pants. Have a talk with your wife about your treatment options or prosthetic aid options online or suggested by your doc, and ask your wife what she thinks about spicing things up with fingering and oral sex and toys that might excite you both but be workable around your limitations.
