When you have ED it’s easy to think you’re the only one suffering. But partners suffer too. They can feel just as powerless and under pressure. So why not make them feel special and do a few things that show you care.
- Put your partner first – while they’ve been worrying about how you’re feeling, there’s a good chance the things they’ve wanted to do have been put on the back burner. Help make those things a reality.
- Let them know something they’ve done has made a difference – it will make them feel appreciated.
- Listen to them when you can tell they are feeling down or need to get something off their chest – this can be a tough one if the discussion is about ED. Just remember to take a back seat. It’s their turn to vent and you need to be all ears.
- Do something with just the two of you – there are so many other ways that you can show your partner they are special and appreciated. The more they feel special, the more content they will be in your relationship.
