DEAR DEIDRE: EVER since my wife made a jibe about my penis being small, my self-esteem has been on the floor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, whenever we have sex it\u2019s all I can think about and no matter what I do I can\u2019t shake the underlying feeling that I\u2019m not big enough for her.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s 42, I\u2019m 46 and we\u2019ve been married for 13 years.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Throughout my life, I\u2019ve always known my size was below average, but I thought my wife had never minded.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Yet two weeks ago I overheard her laughing her head off on the phone with a friend and I couldn\u2019t help myself from asking her what was so funny. <\/p>\n

She went on to tell me about a time before we met when she almost slept with a man but had to stop in her tracks when she saw the size of his penis.<\/p>\n

She couldn\u2019t contain her laughter and told me it was the size of a pea.<\/p>\n

I jokingly asked if he was smaller than me to which she replied \u201cI couldn\u2019t say\u201d. <\/p>\n

I wanted to believe that she was joking, but a part of me knew that there was some seriousness to her comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She could tell I was hurt and quickly apologised, promising me she didn\u2019t mean it. Yet, ever since then I can\u2019t get it off my mind.\u00a0<\/p>\n

My confidence has hit at an all-time low. I feel so unworthy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

DEIDRE SAYS:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>It\u2019s understandable that you are hurt at your wife\u2019s comment.<\/p>\n

If you already had insecure feelings about your size then it\u2019s natural this would intensify that.<\/p>\n

However, if she\u2019s apologised and until this point hasn\u2019t complained about your sex life, then it could just have been an insensitive joke.<\/p>\n

Tell your wife exactly how it made you feel and that her laughter was immature and callous.\u00a0<\/p>\n
