Sex

Title says it all really!! Will I ever be able to have 'normal' sex again like missionary position for example.
It's been 4 weeks tomorrow since my THR and my partner is now feeling the pressure of working full time and looking after me it's such a hard argument as I can't do what normal people do (hoover etc) so he is doing all the housework as well I feel totally useless as it is without him pointing it out, then sex gets thrown into the equation and I feel like I'm letting him down as a girlfriend and a lover. I think this might break us and on top of recovery I don't know how I'll cope or if I can cope 😢😭 I'm scared

You can't rush recovery and a dislocation isn't worth it. They say to wait at least 6 weeks.
I'm a male and it very difficult for me to do much of anything sexually. I am 6 weeks post op on my lthr and 6 months post op for my right. My girlfriend has been very patient with me.
If your relationship isn't strong enough to withstand this then....

😱 Lovie , please don't do anything to put yourself at any risk . Please don't feel pressured by yourself or anyone. You may need to wait a little longer. I'm 3 weeks 4 days and I really don't think I could. But my husband and myself have been intimate in other ways that didn't involve full sex . You will get your full sex life back 100% when your body has healed completely xxxx 😘😘. Im feeling the same as you , 35 , very tearful, struggling emotionally, xx

Hi Laura, its not the be all and end all and I'm sure your partner wouldn't allow this time scale without full blown sex to end your relationship, would he??
You need to for once look after number one, I bet you have not complained when you had to hoover every day and loads more besides, my OH has actually been amazing while I'm recuperating, that's saying something as he hasn't done much around the house in all the years we have been together.
Tell him how much he will enjoy it for having to wait.

PS ... If your feeling anything like me right now , it's not just the sex , I feel completely useless and pointless. My husband is also back to work, running the whole house and 3 kids 😱😱😭😭 it's so hard watching him getting on with my life . Keep doing your exercises 😍 You and me too will get our life's back soon xxxxxxxxx 😘😘 in

Yup nail on the head I feel like a sack of gone of potatoes can't even dress myself he comes home I have one sock on and baggy trackies as that's all I can hook my leg into its so frustrating playing 'hook a duck' every morning!!
Trouble is yes he has been amazing but also used it against me to make me feel worthless little digs 'don't need you at all now'
Sex is a big thing for him and me but he gets frustrated and angry because it takes time and a lot of patience to find the right position.
I do feel like what is the point in me being here 😭😭😭 xxxx

I'm being told I'm ungrateful and have used him etc.
It's not nice being useless im 29 had to give my dogs up and my son lives with his dad full time as I couldn't cope so being told I'm ungrateful when I'm really not hurts

Yes sweetie 😍 I too have one sock on and baggy trackies 😂😂😂 . It's very frustrating, I feel like a baggy bag of crap too 😪. But he really shouldn't be making you feel worse than you do already, that's nasty. That's not very loving and very unkind and thoughtless.

I'm just guna say it , what a total arse 😡. I'd have got rid of that along time ago . Do you really need that in your life . I'm sorry but it's when the chips are down you really see someone's true character. And his isn't nice 😷 . You sound like a nice person and I'm thinking you deserve a lot better 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I am eternally grateful but he is meant to love me so should come naturally I understand his added pressure and having to listen to me moan and be depressed but don't throw it in my face. He tells everyone I do nothing so I look lazy but I do try to help I wash up clean sides put washing on airer little jobs that help him even just to save 5 minutes but get called cripple, biddy hip, ungrateful c**t but when I stand up for myself I'm the world's worst girlfriend never mind the fact I took him back last October after he cheated on me when he went to a festival all weekend oh and then he physically attacked me in January so I went to stay with family in Spain for a month I still took him back but no I'm the world's worst gf because I can't currently hoover or perform sexually and I stand up for myself when I should keep my mouth shut 😠😠
Sorry guys

Laura , if you take a man back after he's cheating on you your just saying " that's fine I don't mind " the same as if you take him back after beating of hitting you . Or talking to you like that . Please please please get rid , he's vile . Could you move in with family for a while?? I had an idiot once and it was a complete waste of 2 years I'll never get back . When you have children they look up to there dads , a boy would see your boyfriend and learn that's how to be a man , a daughter would look up to him and think that's how a woman should be treated, . Yuck !!!!! You are worth so much more , but you have to do it , no one can do it for you babe 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I have nowhere to go. Waiting for him to come home with my car he's going mad at me down the phone so think I'll have to break the no driving for 6 weeks rule just to get out and go somewhere.
He knew the 6 weeks recovery would be hard and I knew he would cave well it's all my fault I've ruined everything suppose 4 weeks was longer than expected for him to cope. I get put down daily and just haven't got the strength to tell him to do one. Love hurts

Google " narcissist " very dangerous people. Get rid , your worth so much more . I had a saying many years ago , please excuse my language " I'd rather be on my own and lonely than live my life with a w*nker " once I got rid it allowed space for a wonderful new man to come into my life . He's the opposite. And hand on heart it's like winning the lotto everyday being with him . You could have that too , but you have to make it happen xxxxx

Why don't you throw him out with the old diseased hip ? Better to be alone and at peace than with a narcissist or psycho. Your not at a good place now but if you can find the strength you won't regret it . You need peace , healing , love and light . Get out .. You know in your heart it's the right thing to do X

Laura,
No need to apologise to us at all - we know what the recovery from this operation is like, the physical and emotional toll it takes on us. Your story makes me value my wife even more, I must make a special effort to thank her on a regular basis, she has been my rock. 🤸
I do hope you 'sort him out' - you deserve so much better.
Hugs 💙 💚 💛 💜
