You mean trying out homosexuals? I'm a blood donor, if I go the path of gays I cannot donate blood.

I'm 43 reaching 44 years old this year.

We broke up amicably la. No, not stupid question, but we decided to go separate so that she can pursue her business career while I can look after my family. Our aspirations differ as we age.

I feel like puking my lunch out when I see men and women having sex. It's so yucky, I have difficulty trying to turn myself on when I see other people engaging in intimacy, much worse myself.

I just did a full health screening at SATA Commhealth, and the results confirmed that I am suffering from testosterone deficiency. I'm not complaining, I'm ok with it because the good news is that I don't have too many other health hazards, but I am just being true to myself by confessing that I have been experiencing erection problems for the past four years at least. The last time my (ex-)girlfriend touched me intimately was four years ago, back then I was still attracted to her, but I simply couldn't perform in bed. The doctor said it was performance anxiety. Sex has become extremely stressful for me, and I have tried other means to get myself aroused such as watching prawn once in a while, but most of the time I am quite inert.

I just tried to jerk off moments ago, but I just won't get aroused. Sigh, I give up for the time being. My (ex-)girlfriend taught me to 顺其自然 i.e. let nature take its own course, so I let it go and post a little here in EDMW to confess my ineptitude.

at least u dun need to worry about high sexual demand. it's very frustrating when u can perform and has high needs but wife hates sex. at least no needs then you n ur wife won't have issue. or if u r single, then don't need worry about having to find professional services.

Why you break off with ex girlfriend
I'm 43 years old, she's 39, I wanted to marry her, but my income is too low and she'll still have to earn her own upkeep. So to her, it's an unnecessary burden because not only must she put up with me, in the end she'd also have to take care of my ageing parents too. To her it's better off if she channels her focus on her career while she still has the drive and passion. For me, since we are not likely to have kids, and the urge to have sex is no longer that strong, it felt better that we go separate. We are still good friends who would talk about a li
Lastly, if I may ask, did this happen gradually? Like slowly no more 'morning wood', weaker erections, .etc?
I was at my tip top condition when I first met my (ex-)girlfriend in the year 2010. Back then we were both horny creatures and we undressed each other quickly in a quiet room after meeting each other at a nightspot, back then we were both more active in life la. But as time passes, she matured a lot and found more meaning developing her business career, while I still had a whole bunch of extended family members who needed me as a caregiver. As the rigours of life took over, we started losing interest, and on my end I started becoming more interested in Buddhist views and practices such as abstinence and continence. On top of that, my medication meant that I was also being sedated most of the time, I wasn't so capable of becoming sexually aroused, and bit by bit I became inert. The rest of the story I've already posted in this thread, basically I became a Erectile Dysfunction patient apart from suffering from mental issues.

Yes I am on Olanzapine and Sodium Valproate. I'm not familiar with all these medical jargon, but I have been taking these medications since 2018, from the moment I started taking them I could observe my libido going down.

That's why she's my (ex-)girlfriend lor. She doesn't mind, in fact she supports me going celibate, but I cannot overcome my own mental hurdles. So we agreed, let's take a break, I won't find other girls, but if someone better comes her way I'll wish her all the best. My gal is a businessperson, she likes to earn money more than having sex, so I'm ok with it having known her for so long.
yah ... sucks to say anti psychotic will tank your sex drive. even TRT may not help much and it may even cause your balls to shrink

like others suggested .... exercise especially resistence training ... compound exercises and more squats .. boost your test naturally

incline walking and jogging to boost your dopamine and serotonin

We see/listen and we don't judge.

2025 already. There isn't anything shameful abt own appearance & body.

What is more important is our mental health. Enough to eat, enough to spend. The rest leave it to God. For he path our road ahead.

The reviewing doctor asked me to do my exercise. She said it'd help.


That's what the doctor says too. She says I'm also having Vitamin D deficiency, so she asked me to go out, get some sunshine, work out a little, and let nature take care of the rest. I agreed.

Are you bbfa?

At this point I am single and not married, but for the past 14 years I only have one sexual partner i.e. I was previously sexually active before I came down with ED. So yes, I am now effectively BBFA. I'm not having sex for the past four years.

I mean are you overweight? Maybe you should focus on fitness and nurse your mental health to fitness first then time to hunt like a predator!!!

It’s common to have ED at an early age but not normal to have sexless relationship. Sex is very important to building and emotional connection. Just pop the blue pill. No big deal about it. Just expensive only.
