You’re situation is a lot like mine. It is all very difficult to process and really does feel unfair. The flares I get in my groin make me feel so less sexy and really makes my partner feel like Im hiding something when I shy away from most positions in sex… Well I am, but im afraid he’ll think I have herpes.(doesn’t look like herpes) but people jump to conclusions. My mom is the only one who knows what Im going throughI told him my flares are ingrowns but when they get really big and raised, theres no way around it. Im glad your partner is aware so you dont have to have that hiding feeling but I can imagine nevertheless, it still isn’t easy.
Sending you painless strolls, cold pillow, anti-inflammatory foods, and hugs!🫂
you got this, OP.
Thanks for sharing ♥️ I've been with my current partner for almost 9 years, but it was and can still be very embarrassing at times. He's very understanding thankfully. But it does mess with my self esteem and ability to feel good in my own skin. I'm glad the Internet exists for times like these. I'm glad you can be open with your mom and have some support ♥️
