How does your ED affect your sex lives?
I became anorexic my junior year of high school. I dated occassionally but always puched guys away bc I was too embarrassed about my body. In college, I finally started kissing guys, etc. but was still v uncomfortable w a guy touching my body. Now I am 23. I have a boyfriend taht I have been with for almost 2 years. I on;y feel comfortable with him, but the problem is I compare myself to the other women he was with. Were their breasts perkier? Were their hips smaller? Were their tummies flatter? I mean. I've been with other guys, but lost my virginity to him. So, he's all I know, really. It grosses me out that he was with others, and I hate feeling like how do i compare? I am thankful I've found someone who loves me and wants to be with me and work through all my issues, but I was curious if others had similar experiences?

Yes, on some level I still compare myself to my husband's ex or any woman really, but it's not as bad as it used to be. I do feel more comfortable sexually and about the whole ex issue when I feel good about my body, but even that has gotten better. I had a hysterectomy 3 months ago and still have a lot of hormonal imbalance. Right now my stomach is so swollen I look like I am pregnant and I am retaining so much water my baggy pants are tight.

It is funny you brought this up - not funny "ha ha" but funny "I thought it would be a big topic of discussion".
Dear Disney:
I had problems with being touched when I first dated and had bulimia.
