Haha, yeah I didn't realise until the secret was posted that I made him sound like kind of a dick. I think it just feels at this point he's kind of accepted that he can't make it happen. When I bring it up or try to guide him it just ends with him getting frustrated and me taking care of it myself.

I actually pondered about couples therapy the other day. With his ego being as fragile as it is I'm not sure he'd be up for it, but I'll try and bring it up with him. Thank you for your kind comment, bb. <3

Yeah, I figured that might have happened. It's hard to be concise and get the info you want in a secret without giving the wrong impression sometimes.

Honestly, the fragile ego thing is even more reason to try to get him into the therapy thing. Good luck!

Look at it this way, his ego isn't going to toughen up by avoiding the problem, and a fragile ego isn't a very good reason to spoil an otherwise good relationship. It isn't about fixing him or shaming him, it's about addressing an issue you both have and hopefully having a shot at finding a workable solution so you can both be happy. That's got to be more important than his insecurities, and if it isn't... well, that tells you something important, too.

Being resistant toward working it out because it makes him feel inadequate is, quite frankly, bullshit. 'Accepting' that he can't satisfy you physically or emotionally just sounds like he doesn't want to try anymore. That's something that needs to be addressed one way or another, and if he doesn't want to actually try and address it, and instead prioritizes his own ego over his partner's happiness, I think that's telling. You deserve to have your needs met by your partner, that's the bare minimum.
