Do you tell your partners you have an implant? Will they notice?

Most times, ED is ED. But sometimes, concerns are going to be different.

I got an implant 19 days ago. Not sure if I'll tell my partner. Will he notice? Do you guys tell your partners?

Welcome to the forum, BigClemsonFan.

Heterosexual men have the same question. A lot of the answers, yes or no, depend on the type of relationship you have when you escalate into sexual activity. Is it a brief encounter? An all-nighter? Someone you are likely to see again? Someone with whom you might be willing to have a continuing or serious relationship? That would be a consideration, also. If your reputation in your social circle might suffer it it were known you had an implant (and had E.D. serious enough to require one), you should consider the consequences if your partner shared the information.

When I went on a dating site, I was completely open about my implant (and before my implant, about my impotence as well). I generally adhere to being honest about such things. It eases the tension in a relationship if there are no secrets and makes discovery that there WAS such a secret a non-issue. Of course, women are supposedly more sensitive about having had secrets withheld from them than men, but the point remains.

Do, please, look up the prior dicsussions on this subject. There are answers there from members who may no longer be active on this forum and you will get a bolus of information very quickly that it would take a long time (if ever) to trickle in on a current thread.

When I first joined FrankTalk I spent a couple weekends goong through a few years of past popsts. It was well worth the time.

Regards and good luck
