New GF cheated because of my ED

Brand new relationship that moved a bit fast, I moved into her home within about 3 weeks of starting to talk.

I’ve had moments of ED prior to this with others that I chalked off as one-offs. This time between the stress of the move, unhappy at work and this all being so new I was utterly awful in bed. 100% psychological I think.

We had very good communication and deep conversations about our pasts and needs. But she chose to cheat on me while I was away for the holidays to get her fix. Now I’m living out of my car.

This experience brought me here.

Sounds rough but your relationship break up brought you here for a reason so that’s a positive. Most of us here spend too much time in our heads listening to our inner critic instead of just living in the moment. Once you recognise that inner critic you’ll realise that it’s sabotaging your life in many ways and that it’s time to silence it and start living the life you’re meant to live. Stick with this mate. You’ve got this and can improve your life.

This sounds rough, but if someone won’t be there for you in the early stages, they won’t be there for you in the latter stages. As someone who’s been cheated on, it says more about them as a person. Sounds like you’ve dodged a bullet and don’t let it put pressure on you and your ED.
