Lots of diabetics have sex! 😕 So, I’m confused as to the link between erectile dysfunction and diabetes — lots of men have e.d. but they find ways to have a sex life with their wives, either by having less of it, but with more “support” or by having a physical and asking their doctors for pharmaceutical (Viagra, et al) therapy or by using sex toys, etc. The bottom line is that most men will want to please their wives sexually.
It sounds like you married in your early 40s and that this is your first marriage, and there was no sex before your wedding in this marriage. If you are passionate and loving, as you describe yourself, is this a marriage where you’re doing the care-taking (not just sexually), and he isn’t generous in other areas, too?
In other words, is sex the only problem here?
This isn’t just about desire and passion. It’s about generosity. Your husband knows you have a sex drive, and I would hope his empathetic side would want to take care of you in this way. Have you been honest and forthcoming with him?
I agree that you should not give up your sex life or your sexuality, but it’s time to be roll up your sleeves and talk to your husband about what’s bothering you and what you’d like and how sex isn’t just a way to be physical, it’s a way to closer spiritually, as well. 😉
See if he won’t go to a doctor, get a physical and discuss options for having a healthy sexual relationship with you.
