Hello Godbless .
Welcome to the family. Eddie has expressed things well and I have attached the link for you as I know it can be difficult to navigate the forum at first.
My husband has been on HT for almost 4 years but, whilst some aspects of our physical relationship are not possible, this has not stopped us from being very close and still having fun. From a womans point of view a loving, caring partnership is more important. Someone I can enjoy doing things with, having a laugh with, but being supportive on the down days carries a lot more weight.
