Wife getting upset

🍆 Erection issues
1

Hi all. 36yo married guy. Wife and I have been together a long time. My PED issues were present at the start of our relationship and got somewhat better.

We had our first child nearly 3years ago and have had sex once since the birth up until recently. Combination of life stresses plus the long dry period have bought the old issue back.

Wife is supportive and keen to be more consistent but every time wet try and fail, she bursts into tears. Once things have calmed down she can rationalize but in the moment she can’t help but take it personally. Really difficult to deal with.

I’m not looking for anything in particular, just wanted to get this off my chest to an audience who might understand.

Cheers lads.

You need to help her realize it’s you, not her. My ex was similar.
I didn’t fully understand it either. She left.
1.5 yrs later I’m in the best relationship of my life.
Fully open to understanding my issues, :100:empathic and willing to help!
If she’s not willing to accept that most of the issue is in your head & willing to give you the space and help, I’m afraid it’ll never work.
