it may be too late for this relationship. sad he is not patient nor compassionate and caring enough to understand. sex is not everything.
Yes abuse has been a problem but I don't think it stems from that although some of my difficulties are definitely due to this. I have been in and out of therapy all my life and still see my psychiatrist on a regular basis but I always find it difficult to open up to him about my relationship issues.
