2 days agoMaintaining intimacy during cancer treatment is a common challenge that many couples face, and it's completely understandable to feel conflicted about wanting closeness while also feeling the urge to create distance. Consider having an open conversation about both of your needs and exploring different ways to connect emotionally and physically that feel comfortable right now - intimacy can take many forms beyond physical relations, including simple touch, quality time together, and honest communication about your feelings.
