I was abused by my stepfather from age 2 and a half to 27 years. Now I'm an adult with a husband of 17 years. He is experiencing "ED". He feels like it's not fair to me because I don't have sexual intercourse anymore. I'm fine not having sex because of my past but he dismisses it.I told him that satisfied with us just the way we are. He said that he's not. He gets angry and tells me that he doesn't want me anymore and I have to leave. Then he'll say sorry and that he can't live without me.

I'm so confused

Forget what he wants and thinks. What do you want? Do you want to be in a relationship with him?

We've been together for 17 years. I raised his daughter with him. I saved her life.

In that case he needs to see his doctor to get help for his problem. It's not fair him being angry with you; you've done nothing wrong.
