My boyfriend has kidney cancer and hopefully having an operation to remove it soon. He has recently been diagnosed with heart disease. He is suffering with problems with erection. I made a bad comment by mistake, gutted. We have spoken about it, it’s resolved i think. He is becoming more distant, I think he is no longer interested in me, or cannot cope. I am struggling to cope and I don’t have cancer. Don’t know what to do.
Hi Jane 1961 welcome to the forum and sorry to hear what's been happening. Have you had a chance to talk with him about you feeling the distance between you? It sounds like you are an open couple wh
can talk about difficult subjects I imagine that he will be scared himself and him seeming to be distant may be him thinking he is protecting you by stepping back from the relationship before the op etc if that makes sense? Having heart disease as we'll is clearly affecting him in other ways which can happen with some medications. It's a very difficult time gor you both but keeping those channels of communication open between you is crucial to getting through this together.. Best wishes to you both Gail
