I've developed feelings for a friend of my late wife who is also lonely

DEAR DEIDRE: MY wife and I had been married 40 years when she passed away a year ago. I am still heartbroken but the pandemic has been a sort of blessing in disguise.

An old friend of hers got in touch saying she was worried I’d be lonely. She started calling round when lockdown lifted and we’ve become close. She’s single too. She is 59 and I am 61.

Our feelings have changed and now we are more than just friends. She’s started staying over and we’ve been having sex. I couldn’t get an erection the first time but I took Viagra and the sex was great – but now I am not climaxing.

I do miss my wife badly but I want this to work out with my friend. I have never been this happy since I lost my dear wife.

DEIDRE SAYS: I am sure your wife would want you to be happy too.

Everyone has heard of Viagra but not everyone realises it comes in three different strengths and other types of erection medication can suit certain men better.

At least initially, it really is worth talking it all over with your doctor – and getting a health check while you are at it, as erection problems can be a symptom of a health issue that needs treating. My e-leaflet on Solving Erection Problems explains self-help sex therapy and expert treatment in more detail.
