Does anyone else have a disabled partner who is no longer able to be involved in the physical aspect of the relationship.
I joined the site a couple of years back because my partner became disabled 6 years ago and can no longer participate in anything physical, previously she had already lost that urge and our physical side was rare.
I did get a couple of meetings and then started to feel guilty and came off but because I still wish to feel sexually active have rejoined.
Has anyone else had experience with this and how have you dealt with it? |

Oh God. My opinion is that you’re doing the wrong thing by cheating and you should be honest about your desires and needs. One thing your partner needs is commitment, not someone that won’t communicate.
Good luck. Hope you find the answers you seek from others that have been in similar.

Yes that has been an early discussion however since the injury resulted in paralysis from the chest down along with traumatic brain injury which has led to her being confused and sometimes disorientated as well as problems remembering and concentrating these kind of conversations are difficult. |

I don't have experience but quite a few do.
I think you must do what is best for all concerned and that isn't always what strangers on the internet think is right.
Hopefully someone who does have experience of this will be along and you'll be able to have an open discussion |

That's awful for you both.
You're caught between a rock and a hard place |

Hence my question and whilst this isnt the obvious place to ask there may been many reasons why some people are here and one or two could be for something similar.

"How does your partner feel about it?"
I did an earlier response where i explain the disability is not only physical so discussion with her on this is not an easy one or one that she could now comprehend in the capacity that we can. |

"The problem with asking here, is that nobody knows your relationship as well as you, so any advice is likely to be of little use. "
Youre correct but when i first joined i did see a couple of profiles that did mention disabled partners and never spoke to them about it. And whilst we would have the same experiences they may have a better understanding. |

There are a few men. Hopefully they'll see this and you can have a discussion with people who've lived your situation. |
