Yeah sorry to hear about this Bib. But yes, I think you just have to decide if you’re going to try to live life or not even with these side effects. You can wait until you feel you’ve gotten better to a degree but there’s not telling when that will happen or how much better you’ll feel then. If the thought of a girl telling others that you’re impotent bothers you, first make sure you have some meds ready to go in case you need to perform and second, realize that dating doesn’t have to end in sex until you want it to. You can date and do what you’re comfortable with. Go down on her, finger her or not. If she asks why you’re not doing more you can just say you want to take it slow. If you really like and care about a person (which i think would be an excellent ultimate goal with dating for guys with our problems) you can tell them about this. Maybe after awhile they’ll be in love with you and just see this as something that isn’t ideal but they can deal with.
I have a really good friend that is great with women and is always in a relationship and he has told me, he doesn’t have ED but he does just have a lower sex drive than his partners usually do. For him a couple times a month would be pretty much enough. So it has caused some issued in the past with his relationships but they never broke it off with him. Some did say they’d prefer more sex than what he was giving and he’d have to have talks about how it isn’t them that’s just how he is and maybe he’d have to go down on them more sometimes to keep them satisfied. The point simply is he didn’t let that be the thing that stopped him from pursuing a relationship and finding happiness and while what we have is infinitely worse, i’m just saying don’t let that one thing be a stopping point if you can find it in you to move past it
