As someone who’s gone through this myself, I can tell you that your partner’s honesty is really commendable. After my prostate removal, I had the same experience—orgasms feel different but are still very satisfying. The physical release is gone, but the sensations can be intense, and the emotional connection even stronger because there’s a focus on intimacy without any pressure. It took a little getting used to, but I was relieved to find that my partner was supportive, which made a world of difference.
One thing that’s helped my partner and me is focusing on connection-building activities outside of the bedroom, which translates well into intimacy. Sometimes just spending quality time together doing non-sexual activities, like a date night or a long walk, has actually strengthened our bond in unexpected ways. It keeps the pressure off and lets us both be present without expectations.
Also, I’d suggest being patient with him if he’s still adjusting, too. It can be hard for men to go through this, as it affects not only their physical experience but sometimes their confidence. A little reassurance can go a long way in helping him feel secure and open with you, knowing that you care and are willing to understand.
Just remember, intimacy is more than the physical. If he’s feeling loved, accepted, and understood, he’ll have an easier time being vulnerable with you, and that will make every experience together that much more meaningful.
